Anyone care to explain? ...I soon figured out that it's because the terminal driver adds ^M's so uudedoce sees an `end^M' and misses the `end' allright. So the simple solution is to set the terminal in raw mode like: # cat <<EOF >/tmp/getit echo 'sleep 1 && stty raw && uuencode -m /path/to/ppp.deb - && stty -raw' uudecode -o /tmp/ppp.deb EOF But I would like to leave the terminal as is, and filter it out, so I thought of fromdos and `tr -d "\r"', but it won't work. A single cat works, a second cat or fromdos or tr with or without cat fails???? # cat <<EOF >/tmp/getit echo 'sleep 1 && uuencode -m /path/to/ppp.deb -' fromdos | uudecode -o /tmp/ppp.deb EOF Still need an explanation:( -- groetjes, carel
