Attached is a beta (alpha really) version of my program UUCOPY. It is
hopefully a fat binary - that is - it should run natively on both Power
Macs and classical Macs. I HAVE ONLY TESTED THIS SOFTWARE ON A POWER MAC!
Yes, I recognize that this program will rarely benefit by the Power Mac's
muscle, but I feel like it's a good thing to get into the habit of
producing PM native code.

UUCOPY is intended to allow the user to select files for transfer via the
Mac version of UUPC.

The first time UUCOPY is run the user is prompted to locate the UUPC
settings file. This file path is stored in a Preferences file in the
System folder.

The user can choose any or all of the systems defined in the UUPC ROUTEVIA
field as destinations through a dialog box. The selected destinations are
saved in the Preferences file on exit for convenience.

NOTE WELL that UUCOPY only copies data forks -- it is currently your
responsibility to make sure that the information that you want to transfer
is all in the data fork. For normal Mac files you may want to use BinHex
or MacBinary formats.

If there is sufficient interest, I'll integrate MacBinary conversion into
UUCOPY.

UUCOPY requires System 7.
