UU Encoding & Decoding
Whenever you need to send binary data over a communications link or network such as the Internet which cannot handle 8-bit data, then UU encoding and decoding are your solution. Binary data is used in file types with extensions of .EXE, .COM, ZIP, .ARC, .LZH, .ZOO, and others.
UU encoding and decoding are also required to send binary data files between popular on-line services such as GEnie, America On-Line, Compuserve, and educational and other sites on the Internet.
Another popular use for UU encoding and decoding is the Internet network news facility. Again, the reason is to allow binary data to be sent without requiring 8-bit binary data. PC interfaces to the Internet which support the network news capability are now available as well.
Now you can handle these encoded files on a Windows 3.0/3.1 equipped PC such that UU encoding and decoding is possible between two PCs or between your PC and a UNIX system. UUCODE can do both encoding and decoding, and is fully compatible with the standard "uuencode" and "uudecode" programs found on UNIX systems.
