- Yet Another Base64 decoder is a simple droplet designed to decode MIME
- Base64 encoded files that are dropped upon it. It assumes that all
- segments of the original MIME document have been concatented into the
- file being decoded, and that the segments are in order.
-
- This is intended primarily as a helper application for Yet Another
- NewsWatcher. It is not a general purpose MIME document decoder. It
- is not even a general purpose Base64 decoder. It requires, but does
- not test for, System 7 or later.
-
- If the program encounters a line containing name="filename.ext" before
- it finds any base64 data, that name will be used for the decoded file.
- Otherwise an attempt is made to located a name for the decoded file
- using the Subject header line in the message. If this is unsuccessful,
- a name of the form untitled-nn will be used.
-
- The file mapping settings of Internet Config will be used to assign
- a file type to the converted file.
-
- There are only two preferences. The program will optionally delete
- the original encoded file after it has been processed. You can also
- specify if the Notification Manager should display a dialog when the
- program encounters a problem when running in the background. Otherwise
- it merely blinks its icon in the application menu.
-
- Brian Clark assumes no liability for the use of this application.
