DESCRIPTION

14       The mewencode utility encode/decode MIME objects.
15
16       The options are as follows:
17
18       -e      Encoding.
19
20       -d      Decoding.
21
22       -8      See if any 8bit characters are contained.
23
24       -b      MIME base64 en/decoding.
25
26       -q      MIME quoted-printable en/decoding.
27
28       -g      MIME gzip64 en/decoding(not yet specified in RFC).
29
30       -z      The same as -g.
31
32       -u      Uudecoding.

34       -l length
35               Line  length into which base64/quoted-printable/gzip64 encoding
36               truncate.
37
38       -t      On base64/gzip64 encoding, local newline is  treated  as  CRLF.
39               On  base/gzip64  decoding, any newline is translated into local
40               newline.  Specify this option only when the  input  is  a  line
41               based  object(e.g.  Content-Type:  is  text/plain  or  applica‐
42               tion/postscript).
