PUUDECODE(1)          User Contributed Perl Documentation         PUUDECODE(1)

NAME
        puudecode - perl replacement for uudecode

SYNOPSIS
        puudecode inputfile

DESCRIPTION
       Uudecode reads a uuencoded inputfile and writes the decoded string to
       the file named in the uuencoded string. It changes the permissions to
       the mode given in the uuencoded string.

BUGS
       This implementation is much slower than most uudecode programs written
       in C. Its primary intention is to allow quick testing of the underlying
       Convert::UU module.
