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 ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ · 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 ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ · 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 Jĝrn Halonen. You may configure your own uudecoder as well. Contents ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ This distribution contains 4 files. The first three should be placed in your /THOR/Rexx directory.
