-This module encodes and decodes files in binhex4 format, a format
-allowing representation of Macintosh files in ASCII. On the macintosh,
-both forks of a file and the finder information are encoded (or
-decoded), on other platforms only the data fork is handled.
-
-The \code{binhex} module defines the following functions:
-
-\setindexsubitem{(in module binhex)}
-
-\begin{funcdesc}{binhex}{input\, output}
-Convert a binary file with filename \var{input} to binhex file
-\var{output}. The \var{output} parameter can either be a filename or a
-file-like object (any object supporting a \var{write} and \var{close}
-method).
-\end{funcdesc}
-
-\begin{funcdesc}{hexbin}{input\optional{\, output}}
-Decode a binhex file \var{input}. \var{input} may be a filename or a
-file-like object supporting \var{read} and \var{close} methods.
-The resulting file is written to a file named \var{output}, unless the
-argument is empty in which case the output filename is read from the
-binhex file.
-\end{funcdesc}
-
-\subsection{Notes}
-There is an alternative, more powerful interface to the coder and
-decoder, see the source for details.
-
-If you code or decode textfiles on non-Macintosh platforms they will
-still use the macintosh newline convention (carriage-return as end of
-line).
-
-As of this writing, \var{hexbin} appears to not work in all cases.

-\section{Standard Module \sectcode{uu}}
-\stmodindex{uu}
-
-This module encodes and decodes files in uuencode format, allowing
-arbitrary binary data to be transferred over ascii-only connections.
-Wherever a file argument is expected, the methods accept a file-like
-object.  For backwards compatibility, a string containing a pathname
-is also accepted, and the corresponding file will be opened for
-reading and writing; the pathname \code{'-'} is understood to mean the
-standard input or output.  However, this interface is deprecated; it's
-better for the caller to open the file itself, and be sure that, when
-required, the mode is \code{'rb'} or \code{'wb'} on Windows or DOS.
-
-This code was contributed by Lance Ellinghouse, and modified by Jack
-Jansen.
-
-The \code{uu} module defines the following functions:
-
-\setindexsubitem{(in module uu)}
-
-\begin{funcdesc}{encode}{in_file\, out_file\optional{\, name\, mode}}
-Uuencode file \var{in_file} into file \var{out_file}.  The uuencoded
-file will have the header specifying \var{name} and \var{mode} as the
-defaults for the results of decoding the file. The default defaults
