I even put files to process into the same folder as uud.ttp, then
set it as current and typed uud.ttp *, but with no success.

Er... that means that renaming uud.ttp to uud and moving it to bin
directory would allow me to invoque it directly from the shell ?
Anyway, as I wrote previously, it crashes after each decoded file,
so it will be very fastidious to process the ~80 files... :-(
Helmut sent me a little utility that works fine, except whatever the
amount of files in the directory, it only processes the first one
and exits. Maybe building a little script that explores the directory
and processes each file it finds... is this possible from within Bash ?
