I happen to have just finished merging it and creating a script using it that allows me to send attachments with PAN (it doesn't on its own). uudeview includes uuenview as well, which can encode, and mail or post to a newsgroup if desired, in all sorts of encoding formats, from the obsolete xxencode, to the near-obsolete uuencode, to MIME/quoted-printable and MIME/base64, to yEnc (newsgroup only, as yEnc isn't mail-safe). It can do multi-part mails too, just give it a line-count. uuenview/uudeview are coommand line. There's a tcltk USE flag, however, which controls whether a tk based X/GUI application called xdeview is installed with the package.
