The system need not be directly connected to the local system, but a chain of .Xr uucp 1 links must to connect the two systems. .Pp Available option: .Bl -tag -width Fl .It Fl m Ar mode The mode of the file on the remote end is taken from the octal number given. Otherwise, the mode of the input file will be used. .El .Pp The sourcefile can be .Ql Fl , meaning to use the standard input. Both of these options are primarily intended for internal use of .Nm uusend . .Pp The remotefile can include the .Em ~userid syntax. .Sh DIAGNOSTICS If anything goes wrong any further away than the first system down the line, you will never hear about it. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr uux 1 , .Xr uucp 1 , .Xr uuencode 1 .Sh BUGS This command should not exist, since .Xr uucp should handle it. .Pp All systems along the line must have the .Nm uusend command available and allow remote execution of it. .Pp Some uucp systems have a bug where binary files cannot be the input to a .Xr uux 1 command. If this bug exists in any system along the line, the file will show up severly munged. .Sh HISTORY The .Nm command appeared in .Bx 4.0 .
