7# GRR:  the first line of xxencoded files is identical to that in uuencoded
8# files, but the first character in most subsequent lines is 'h' instead of
9# 'M'.  (xxencoding uses lowercase letters in place of most of uuencode's
10# punctuation and survives BITNET gateways better.)  If regular expressions
11# were supported, this entry could possibly be split into two with
12# "begin\040\.\*\012M" or "begin\040\.\*\012h" (where \. and \* are REs).
