One thing that might help with uudecode problems is to have the following
included in every uuencoded file (before the begin line of course!) or
posted in another message:

1) Size in bytes
2) CRC and/or linear checksum of binary (uuencode has no checksums!)
3) systems tested on (color/mono, tos-in-rom/tos-in-ram)

This way we can determine if uudecode worked correctly.
Some problems may not lie entirely with uudecode. I think uEMACS 3.4
did not work on mono systems (3.7 does with hres50).

Btw, this is assuming there *are* CRC programs already written. I haven't
seen one and have no C-compiler (yet). Perhaps a good topic to discuss
on this mailinglist is what public-domain crc checkers are out there and
how interchangeable they are.

        Hope this helps,
