# Modified by Jack Jansen, CWI, July 1995:
# - Use binascii module to do the actual line-by-line conversion
#   between ascii and binary. This results in a 1000-fold speedup. The C
#   version is still 5 times faster, though.
# - Arguments more compliant with python standard
#
# This file implements the UUencode and UUdecode functions.
