In my last message, I refered to the script file in COMP.BINARIES.IBM.PC
that's the correct name) used for creating "standardized" headers and footers
for combining uuencoded sections of a posting.  I couldn't find the script
to create the separate postings, but here is the script to combine them back
together again:

> #! /bin/sh
> cat $* | sed '/^END/,/^BEGIN/d'| uudecode

Hope this helps.
