The uuencode manpage omits this from the synopsis section:
uuencode filename tempfilename
(I'm not certain if the filenames are optional or not -- all I know is that
without the tempfilename, the program will sit and loop)
The description section should have something like this:
Uuencode takes the named source file (default standard input) and produces
an encoded version on the standard output. The temporary file is a work
file for the program, and will be deleted after the coding is finished.
(or so I understood it from the consultant I talked to)
Thanks!
