  When transferring ASCII files (as uudecoded files are) use the -a switch on
tos. This will give you the correct end of line marker. The inverse M is the CR
character from the CR/LF pair. Minix only uses a LF to mark the end of line.
  You could also do with getting yourself a decent uudecode, as the supplied
minix version is pretty poor. The best uudecoder around, uud.c, is available
on the bradford PD server. Send "help" to server@brad.marvin for help on how to
use this server.
