** Description **

[PT]:

There are two entry points. `uuencode::encode` and `uuencode::decode` just encode or decode the input data while `uuencode::uuencode` and `uuencode::uudecode` generates a properly formatted message (lines limited to 67 chars, length encoded into the first character).

'''Example Usage''':

======
% package require uuencode
1.0
% uuencode::encode ABC
04)#
% uuencode::decode 04)#
ABC
% set data [uuencode::uuencode -name sample.dat ABC]
begin 644 sample.dat
#04)#
`
end
% uuencode::uudecode $data
{sample.dat 644 ABC}
