<function>convert_uuencode</function> encodes a string using the uuencode
algorithm.
</para>
<para>
Uuencode translates all strings (including binary data) into printable
characters, making them safe for network transmissions. Uuencoded data is
about 35% larger than the original.

<simpara>
<function>convert_uuencode</function> neither produces the <literal>begin</literal>
