of the disk, this program better not be on there. All files must
be included, and unaltered for distribution.
I have my reasons for requiring this. If FF gives you any clue,
that's all I will say. He still owes me 2 disks since DEC 88.

there is any since I personally use this program with no troubles.

I came up with this little utility as a result of the amount of work
involved in rejoining files that are posted to USENET. If you don't have
access to USENET you probably won't have any need for this utility.
The reason for this utility is to join together the often multiple files
that often are required for transfers on USENET. It makes the manual job
a breeze.
It may require you to do your downloads slightly different that you are
currently doing, but should not be difficult to live with.
How it works.
-------------
In order for UUJOIN to be able to identify the files that it is suppose
to join together, they must be name the same with an extension corresponding
to the files sequence number. Like this:
FILE.1
FILE.2
FILE.3
FILE.N (N = any further numbers)
To join FILE.1, FILE.2, and FILE.3 together into one file type:
UUJOIN FILE
UUJOIN will automatically create a file in the same directory as the
source files by the name of FILE.UUJ. Once it is finished, all you need to
do is run UUDECODE on the file FILE.UUJ to unpack it.
ENJOY,
