NAME¶
ns_uudecode, ns_uuencode - commands
SYNOPSIS¶
ns_uudecode string
ns_uuencode string
DESCRIPTION¶
ns_uudecode performs HTTP-style uudecoding and returns the decoded value.
ns_uuencode performs HTTP-style uuencoding and returns the encoding
value. The input
string is limited to a maximum length of 48
characters. The encoding string will be approximately 33% longer than the
original.
Note: This is HTTP-style uuencoding/uudecoding which is sometimes called
"htuu" (see RFC 1113). It is not compatible with the format used by
the Unix uuencode/uudecode commands, nor is it base-64 encoding.
For base-64 encoding, consider using the base64 Tcl package in tcllib (see
http://tcllib.sourceforge.net).
