 ******HOW TO CONVERT ENCODED FILES INTO SELF-RUNNING FILES******

   What is an encoded file?  Most electronic mail systems can't
handle binary files.  Binary files are word processor and
spreadsheet data files, and files with a .EXE or .COM extension.
UUENCODE is a file conversion standard.  It will change a binary
file into an ASCII file, that can be sent through E-mail.  Once
you receive the encoded file(s) through E-mail, you can decode it
to return the file back to its binary form.

   UUXFER20 is the program we recommend for decoding INEWS
encoded files.  UUXFER20 is shareware, if you continue to use it
after the 30-day trial period you must register it with its
author.  Public domain and freeware UUENCODE encoding/decoding
software are available.

UUXFER20.ZIP can be found at the following Internet ftp sites:

address: ftp.clarkson.edu
path: /pub/simtel20-cdrom/msdos/filutl

address: pc.usl.edu
path: /pub/msdos/usenet

address: plaza.aarnet.edu.au
path: /micros/pc/oak/decode

address: pc.usl.edu
path: /pub/msdos/usenet

address: medusa.k12.ar.us
path: /pub/simtel2/disc2/decode

   We recommend that you use the shareware program UUXFER20.

If you receive the following encoded file:

  INWS1231.UUE

   At the command line of the directory containing the encode 
files and UUXFER20 you should type:
        
   UUXFER20 -D<FILENAME>

   The file name is always the encoded file with the, UUE or .1
extension. In this case you would enter:

   UUXFER20 -DINWS1231.UUE

   This would convert the encoded files into the file
INWS1231.EXE, the self-running December 31st edition of INEWS
Daily.

If you receive the following encoded files:

   INWS1231.1 
   INWS1231.2 
   INWS1231.3 
   INWS1231.4 
   INWS1231.5

   At the command line of the directory containing the encode
files and UUXFER20 you should type:

    UUXFER20 -M -D<FILENAME>
    
   The file name is always the encoded file with the .1
extension. In this case you would enter:

    UUXFER20 -M -DINWS1231.1

   This would convert the encoded files into the file
INWS1231.EXE, the self-running December 31st edition of INEWS
Daily.
