convert_uuencode

(PHP 5)

convert_uuencode() encodes a string using the uuencode
algorithm.

Uuencode translates all strings (including binary’s ones) into printable
characters, making them safe for network transmissions. Uuencoded data is
about 35% larger than the original.

Example 1. convert_uuencode() example

$some_string = "test\ntext text\r\n";
 
echo convert_uuencode($some_string);
