Uuencoding
Uuencoding is a form of
binary-to-text encoding that originated in the
Unix program uuencode, for
encoding binary data for transmission over the
uucp mail system. The name "uuencoding" is derived from "Unix-to-Unix encoding". Since uucp converted characters between various computer's
character sets, uuencode was used to convert the data to fairly common characters that were unlikely to be "translated" and thereby destroy the file. The program uudecode reverses the effect of uuencode, recreating the original binary file exactly. uuencode/decode became popular for sending binary files by
e-mail and posting to
usenet newsgroups, etc. It has now been largely replaced by
MIME and
yEnc.

Uuencode
Les programmes uuencode et son symétrique uudecode sont des programmes de conversions de données binaires en texte, disponibles sur la quasi-totalité des systèmes
Unix/
Linux, il permettent de convertir sans dégradation des données binaires en vue de leur transmission via un support qui ne le permettrait pas normalement. Ces deux programmes et l'
algorithme qu'ils implémentent ont été portés sur un très grand nombre de
systèmes d'exploitation. Le nom uuencode vient de Unix to Unix Encoding.

UUencode
UUencode war das erste verbreitete Programm, das es ermöglichte,
Binärdateien (also z.B. Bilder oder Programme) so umzuwandeln, dass sie nur noch aus „druckbaren ASCII-Zeichen“ bestehen und dadurch problemlos per
E-Mail verschickt werden konnten, in denen nur
ASCII-Zeichen erlaubt sind.

UUencode/UUdecode
UUencode/UUdecode è una utility
software che converte un file binario (foto o disegno) in un file
ASCII (testo) così che esso può essere inviato sotto forma di allegato ad un messaggio
e-mail o scaricato da un
newsgroup. UUencode trasforma i file non-testo in testo, affinché essi possano essere inclusi in una mail. A messaggio ricevuto, il client di mail esegue UUdecode per riconvertirlo nel formato originario.
