UULite is a Mac program for UU encoding and decoding files. UU encoding is a common Unix based format for transfer of graphics and applications accross the net where file size and the use of all ascii characters could cause problems. UULite can convert between unix text and mac text files. It can also UUencode and UUdecode files for/from transfer on the net. It can also automatically merge and decode UUencoded files that have been split, such as files/graphics found in some of the newsgroups.Shareware fee is $37.00 US and payment can be made with credit card by internet E-Mail.

uuUndo 1.0

uuUndo is a drag-and-drop program for un-encoding files that have been uuEncoded. Examples of such are the graphics and files that one finds in the bodies of newsgroup messages where they appear as a large block of bizarre characters. I believe uuUndo is freeware with no registration fee as I can find no information on registration. Another highly recommended program for Mac users connected to the InterNet.
