==== uudecode ==== Decode an UU-encoded string === Description === uudecode( dest[], const source[], maxlength=sizeof dest ) Since the UU-encoding scheme is for binary data, the decoded data is always “packed”. The data is unlikely to be a string (the zero-terminator may not be present, or it may be in the middle of the data). A buffer may be decoded “in-place”; the destination size is always smaller than the source size. Endian issues (for multi-byte values in the data stream) are not handled. Binary data is encoded in chunks of 45 bytes. To assemble these chunks into a complete stream, function memcpy allows you to concatenate buffers at bytealigned boundaries //NOTE: This is a rarely needed command for ezeio programming.// === Parameters === | ''dest'' | The buffer that will hold the decoded data | | ''source'' | The uu-encoded source buffer | | ''maxlength'' (optional) | The size of dest in cells. If the length of dest would exceed maxlength cells, the result is truncated. | === Return value === The number of bytes stored in dest. === Example usage ===
