SYNOPSIS
|
|
use Convert::UU qw(uudecode uuencode);
|
|
$encoded_string = uuencode($string,[$filename],[$mode]);
|
|
($string,$filename,$mode) = uudecode($string);
|
|
$string = uudecode($string); # in scalar context
|

DESCRIPTION
|
|
uuencode() takes as the first argument a scalar that is to
|
|
be uuencoded. Alternatively a filehandle may be passed
|
|
that must be opened for reading. It returns the uuencoded
|
|
string including begin and end. Second and third argument
|
|
are optional and specify filename and mode. If unspecified
|
|
these default to "uuencode.uu" and 644.
|
|
|
|
uudecode() takes a string as argument which will be
|
|
uudecoded. If the argument is a filehandle this will be
|
|
read instead. Leading and trailing garbage will be
|
|
ignored. The function returns the uudecoded string for the
|
|
first begin/end pair. In array context it returns an array
|
|
whose first element is the uudecoded string, the second is
|
|
the filename and the third is the mode.
