Where can I find uudecode for Red Hat 9.0? I did some googling, and
found that it is/was in sharutils, but I couldn't find sharutils
anywhere
from the installation disks of Red Hat 9.0 Personal.

More specifically, i use Pan newsreader to download a bunch of binary
files. They seem to be stored in /home/username/.pan/messages/cache
directory. In order to uudecode all binary files, is "uudecode *"
enough, or should I create some kind of shell script for looping
through all the files? Pan doesn't seem to uudecode the files to
binary automatically, such as Forte Free Agent (Windows app) does. Any
info on some utililties which do this?
