        SYNOPSIS
             uuencode [file] name

"file" is the optional file to encode (without it, uuencode will read
from stdin), and "name" is the name of the file as presented in the
encoded output.  This is all covered in the man page.  If you specify
only one argument, it is used for "name", and uuencode tries to read the
input file from stdin.
