Usage
ns_uudecode string ns_uuencode string
Overview
ns_uudecode performs HTTP-style uudecoding and returns the decoded
value.
ns_uuencode performs HTTP-style uuencoding and returns the encoding
value. The input string is limited to a maximum length of 48
characters. The encoding string will be approximately 33% longer
than the original.
Note: This is HTTP-style uuencoding/uudecoding which is sometimes
called "htuu" (see RFC 1113). It is not compatible with the
format used by the Unix uuencode/uudecode commands, nor is it
base-64 encoding.
For base-64 encoding, consider using the base64 Tcl package in tcllib (see http://tcllib.sourceforge.net).
