When I uudecoded this on Unix I got an error message stating that there was
no 'end' in the file.  As it turned out the end was there but the file had
a CR/LF at the end of each line instead of just LF.  This was what was causing
the error.  If anyone else had a similar problem, try:

		tr -d '\015' | uudecode

I don't know if this is the problem here, but someone besides myself may have
run into it.
