Introduction
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
This is the one and only UUDecode arexx script for THOR.  It can either be
used from THOR's arexx menu, from the commandline without any arguments, or
from the commandline with an argument consisting of a file name. All
uuencoded files in this file will be decoded.

With THOR 2.2 and above you get an icon in the listview instead of seeing
uuencoded files. However, you still need UUDecode.thor because THOR executes
this script when you click the icon in the listview.

Features
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
 · Progressbar while uudecoding.
 · UUDecode all files in all messages selected in the messagelist listview or
   just the files contained in the message currently shown.
 · Adds filenotes to decoded files stating where you got them.
 · Can recognize an unlimited number of files and execute a chosen action
   upon the decoded file. Use for pictureviewer, archive unpacking, etc etc.
 · Extremely configurable. You can change all paths used (destination,
   temporary, ...), the commandline of the uudecoder you use, filetypes which
   the script should recognize and launch certain actions on, switch on and
   off features which you might consider too slow (filetype recognition and
   adding of filenotes), etc etc.
 · All configuration done from an easy-to-use GUI.

Requirements
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
 · THOR 2.2 or higher.
 · The following AmigaDOS commands in the path: delete, search, filenote, rx
 · Some uudecoder program. The default configuration file contains
   commandlines for uuOut v1.14 by Nicolas Dade, UUxT v3.1 by Asher Feldman 
   and UUFast v1.25 by Jørn Halonen. You may configure your own uudecoder as
   well.

Contents
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
This distribution contains 4 files. The first three should be placed in your
/THOR/Rexx directory.

UUDecode.thor    - the main script
CfgUUDecode.thor - script for configuring all the options
UUDecode.cfg     - default configuration file
UUDecode.readme  - <- you are here

Thanks to

Eirik Nicolai Synnes <eirikns@oslonett.no>
 · For his very nice scripts SortMail.thor and CfgSortMail.thor, both of
   which were *very* useful for v4.x of my script.

History
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
UUDecode.thor v2.00 (20.11.94)
 · This version is only for THOR v2.0 or higher.
 · A lot easier to adapt to other uudecoders and
   includes commandstrings for uuOut, UUFast and UUxT.
 · Finally fixed qoutes around downloadpath with spaces.
   (Thank you Sigbjørn Skjæret! :)
 · Doesn't require rexxsupport.library anymore.
 · adds comments to uudecoded files containing
   'From <name> in <conf> on <bbsname>'.

UUDecode.thor v2.05 (07.12.94)
 · adds filenotes to *all* files in the message

UUDecode.thor v2.40 (10.09.95)
 · supports multiple selected msgs in THOR 2.1

UUDecode.thor v3.00 (03.10.95)
 · Uses the AmigaDOS command "search" for finding filenames to
   add filenotes to. Much faster and uses less RAM.
 · Destination directory for uudecoded files can now be set.
 · Filetype recognition added! Currently recognizes all sorts
   of pictures (based on extension) and three kinds of archives
   (LhA, Zip and Lzx). Supports viewing pictures inline or with
   MultiView and extracting or viewing contents of an archive.

UUDecode.thor v3.01 (07.11.95)
 · Fixed a bug if you didn't have the messagelist window open.
   (Reported by Giovanni Addabbo)

UUDecode.thor 4.0 (12.11.95)
 · Almost totally rewritten from scratch.
 · Progressbar.
 · Made everything configurable through an external configuration file.
 · Released on the THOR mailing list, and on the ftp support site.

UUDecode.thor 4.1 (13.11.95)
 · Added a requester asking you to configure the script to *your* demands
   the first time you run it.
 · Released on Aminet, the THOR mailing list and the THOR ftp support site.

----------------

CfgUUDecode.thor 1.0 (12.11.95)
 · First release of the script on the THOR mailing list.

CfgUUDecode.thor 1.1 (13.11.95)
 · Editing UUDecoder commandline now works. (simple typo.. :-(

----------------

UUDecode.cfg
 · Fixed the default UUDecode.cfg file so that UUxT works.
 · Added a few extensions for the 'a textfile' type.
