External Applications
If the output file is itself a compressed or encoded file, the user must launch an external application as de-
scribed above to decode or uncompress the file. The user may wish to use the information below as a
guide on how to further process such files.
Encoding
Many Uuencode, Base64 and similar decoding tools may be found on the Internet. WinZip will decode
most encodings, as well as performing decompression.
TNF files (Transport Neutral Encapsulation Format) may be read using freeware such as Winmail Opener,
Winmail Reader or tnef2win. Be aware that the TNEF format in addition to the publicly known and de-
scribed Microsoft tags allows private tags, which are used by certain email systems and which the free-
ware readers will not decode.
Compression
A number of freeware decompressors are available from the Internet, i.e. WinRAR, 7zip, etc. Furthermore,
source code for most methods is available in case you wish to roll your own de-compressor.
