NAME
       mewencode, mewdecode, mewcat - MIME encoder/decoder

SYNOPSIS
       mewencode [-options] [infile [outfile]]
       mewdecode [-options] [infile [outfile]]
       mewcat [-options] [infile]

DESCRIPTION
       The mewencode utility encode/decode MIME objects.

       The options are as follows:

       -e      Encoding.

       -d      Decoding.

       -8      See if any 8bit characters are contained.

       -b      MIME base64 en/decoding.

       -q      MIME quoted-printable en/decoding.

       -g      MIME gzip64 en/decoding(not yet specified in RFC).

       -z      The same as -g.

       -u      Uudecoding.

       -l length
               Line length into which base64/quoted-printable/gzip64 encoding
               truncate.

       -t      On base64/gzip64 encoding, local newline is treated as CRLF.
               On base/gzip64 decoding, any newline is translated into local
               newline.  Specify this option only when the input is a line
               based object(e.g. Content-Type: is text/plain or
               application/postscript).

       -h      Display this help message.

       -v      Display the version.
