Fair warning on the recently posted ST BASIC uudecode. It is slow. Also,
the program does not have any of the enhancements of the Dumas version.
The begin line must be the first line of the file to be decoded, and that
file must be continuous. I will be glad to field questions about the program,
but I do not see any reason to enhance (==fix/improve) it because there are
excellent versions of uudecode (which can generally be decoded by my program)
available from the net, and ST BASIC is too much trouble to work with.

P.S. My net reading is generally limited to weekends, so replies via e-mail
may be a little delayed.
