- Program: BPDECODE.EXE
-
- Purpose: a uudecode program for DOS machines which can
- rename the output file from a uuencoded file
-
- Reason: Last week I uuencode the file stuff.exe.bin on a
- SUN machine and split it into a few pieces so I
- could fit it onto a few disks and transport it
- home to my DOS-PC. Upon re-assembling a few
- 1.44 MB files, I discovered, much to my dismay,
- that the uudecode programs I had could not handle
- truncating the .bin off the filename it wanted
- to output. Now you can. It's far from perfect,
- it was originally intended only for use as a hack.
-
- Source: Most of the code is directly from the FreeBSD sources,
- so I'm including their cute little notice:
