Subject: UUENCODE JPG and GIF
I have received about 70 jpg and gif coded files from people on the TC list
that I can not view.
What is the reason for coding these files? I have no trouble sending or
receiving gif, jpg or zip files by email.
Some of the jpg files are made up of 5 or 6 coded email files. How do I
decode these files? How do I decode several files at one time to make a
complete picture?
I have a program called UNC. If I save an email to the c:\unc directory and
call it 001.wri then convert it to 001.txt I can decode it if it is only 1
email file by typing the command line c:\unc\001.txt then enter. That
creates a file like sparkgap.jpg that I can view with Graphic Workshop.
For the multi email files I tried the command line c:\unc\*.* but that does
not work.
I tried to copy and paste all the emails into one txt file and name it a.txt
then type the command line c:\unc\a.txt then enter but the file won't decode.
Does anyone know how this works?
