README.1ST:


                   MIME64 Encoder/Decoder

WHAT MIME64 IS:  MIME64 is an encoding described in RFC1341 as MIME base64.
Its purpose is to encode binary files into ASCII so that they may be passed
through e-mail gates.  In this regard, MIME64 is similar to UUENCODE.
Although most binaries these days are transmitted using UUENCODE, I
have seen a few using MIME64, and I have had requests from friends that
I decode MIME64 files that have fallen into their hands.  As long as
some MIME64 continues to exist, a package such as this one is useful
to have.


WHAT THIS PACKAGE CONTAINS:  This package contains both executable
and ANSI-C source code for a MIME64 encoder/decoder (MIME.EXE and
MIME.C respecively).  It also contains this README file, and a MIME64
encoded file called MIME.64.  The latter will decode to MIME.ZIP if
you issue the DOS command line:

   MIME64 MIME.64 MIME.ZIP

If you unzip the zip file, you will get an essay by Mark Grand about
MIME.


HOW TO USE THIS PACKAGE:  To decode a MIME64 file you may type:

   MIME64 infile outfile

If you leave out the outfile specification, the output file will
overwrite the input file.

To encode a file into MIME64 format, type:

   MIME64 infile outfile -e

Again, if you leave off the outfile specification, the output will
overwrite the input.


STATUS OF THIS PACKAGE:  This package is freeware.  As author, I
claim no copyright.  If you change the source code and intend to
propogate that change to other users, please include a comment to
that effect at the top that states:  The date of the change, the
nature of the change, and who made the change.  As a courtesy, I also
ask that you retain the comment that acknowledges me as the original
