You can use a simple sed command to do just what you want:

cat myfile.u?? | sed /^include/,/^begin/d > myfile.myuue

Cat will get the files in alphabetic order, sed strips all the
lines between "include myfile..." and "begin part..." (inclusively).
The resulting file will still contain the lines before the first
"begin..." but uudecode doesn't bother with that.
(Be sure to name the resulting file so it doesn't get an argument
to cat, too :-)
You can set yourself an alias for the command sequence above or
make it a shell script.

Greetings,
 Wolfgang
