💖 GMIME-UUENCODE 💖

okay bestie, listen up, because this little cutie is the gmime-uuencode manual page and it's here to help you turn your messy binary files into something you can actually text to your friends. no cap. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

gmime-uuencode — encode a binary file to a text stream 🌈

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

gmime-uuencode [options] [ file ] name

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so here's the vibe: gmime-uuencode takes file, encodes it into a text stream, and drops that stream straight onto standard output. iconic behavior, honestly. 🫶

and if you don't name a file on the command line? no problem bestie, it just reads from standard input instead. main character energy, adaptable, we love to see it. 💜

⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

  • -h, --help — shows you the help and then dips. bye! 👋
  • -v, --version — prints the version and exits. slay. ✨
  • -m, --base64 — uses RFC1521 base64 encoding instead. fancy encoding moment. 🔥
