What does it mean when uudecode gives the message "short file"?  Obviously
it is an error of some sort, because the files extracted are cut off.  I also
sometimes get an error simply stated "Error 0".  This occurs after a previous
part has failed.  Does uudecode add to a previous file sometimes?  If I try
to get the binary again, will it still fail, or is the error perhaps
generated in the mail transfer?  Any info is appreciated.
