- Encode a file and print the result to stdout:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`uuencode {{path/to/input_file}} {{output_file_name_after_decoding}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Encode a file and and write the result to a file:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`uuencode -o {{path/to/output_file}} {{path/to/input_file}} {{output_file_name_after_decoding}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Encode a file using Base64 instead of the default uuencode encoding and and write the result to a file:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`uuencode -m -o {{path/to/output_file}} {{path/to/input_file}} {{output_file_name_after_decoding}}`
