UMCP Tools won't uuencode!

I have a copy of UMCP Tools Version 1.0.0 (freeware) that supposedly can
uudecode and uuencode files.

It can do the uudecode part all right (eg uudecode gif files) but when it
comes to uuencoding, a window pops up to select a file to open, but the file
I want to uuencode (resident in local directory) doesn't even appear, so you
can't even select it!!

I want to uuencode an Adobe Photoshop scan (saved in Compuserve gif format).

Is there any reason gif files don't appear in the "open file" window (even
though other files and apps do)?  Am I doing something wrong?  Or is UMCP
tools simply buggy?

Any help is appreciated.
