E-mail, encoded, or through file transfer on America Online. If
used for reproduction it must be sent in plain text form. The
encoded version is not available through FIDO Net. The size of
the files makes mailing to CompuServe users, who are on the
standard pricing plan, cost prohibitive to those CompuServe
users. CompuServe members on the alternative pricing plan do not
pay to receive Internet mail, other than connect charges.

******HOW TO CONVERT ENCODED FILES INTO SELF-RUNNING FILES******
What is an encoded file? Most electronic mail systems can't
handle binary files. Binary files are word processor and
spreadsheet data files, and files with a .EXE or .COM extension.
UUENCODE is a file conversion standard. It will change a binary
file into an ASCII file, that can be sent through E-mail. Once
you receive the encoded file(s) through E-mail, you can decode it
to return the file back to its binary form.
UUXFER20 is the program we recommend for decoding INEWS
encoded files. UUXFER20 is shareware, if you continue to use it
after the 30-day trial period you must register it with its
author. Public domain and freeware UUENCODE encoding/decoding
software are available.
UUXFER20.ZIP can be found at the following Internet ftp sites:
address: ftp.clarkson.edu
path: /pub/simtel20-cdrom/msdos/filutl
address: pc.usl.edu
path: /pub/msdos/usenet
address: plaza.aarnet.edu.au
path: /micros/pc/oak/decode
address: pc.usl.edu
path: /pub/msdos/usenet
address: medusa.k12.ar.us
path: /pub/simtel2/disc2/decode
We recommend that you use the shareware program UUXFER20.
If you receive the following encoded file:
INWS1231.UUE
At the command line of the directory containing the encode
files and UUXFER20 you should type:
UUXFER20 -D<FILENAME>
The file name is always the encoded file with the, UUE or .1
extension. In this case you would enter:
UUXFER20 -DINWS1231.UUE
This would convert the encoded files into the file
INWS1231.EXE, the self-running December 31st edition of INEWS
Daily.
If you receive the following encoded files:
INWS1231.1
INWS1231.2
INWS1231.3
INWS1231.4
INWS1231.5
At the command line of the directory containing the encode
files and UUXFER20 you should type:
UUXFER20 -M -D<FILENAME>
The file name is always the encoded file with the .1
extension. In this case you would enter:
UUXFER20 -M -DINWS1231.1
This would convert the encoded files into the file
INWS1231.EXE, the self-running December 31st edition of INEWS
Daily.
