Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

This module started as an interface to the uulib/uudeview library by Frank Pilhofer that can be used to decode all kinds of usenet (and other) binary messages. After upstream abondoned the project, th library was continuously bugfixed and improved in this module, with major focuses on security fixes, correctness and speed (that does not mean that this library is considered safe with untrusted data, but it surely is safer than the poriginal uudeview). Read the file doc/library.pdf from the distribution for in-depth information about the C-library used in this interface, and the rest of this document and especially the non-trivial decoder program at the end.
