It waits for the input from stdin. 1.19.x has improved help text which hopefully makes it clearer that one-parameter form does *not* specify input file, but specifies filename to be printed in the encoded form: $ busybox uuencode --help busybox uuencode --help BusyBox v1.19.2 (2011-09-12 21:02:22 CEST) multi-call binary. Usage: uuencode [-m] [INFILE] STORED_FILENAME $ echo "test" | busybox uuencode testfile -- vda
testfile
