Dear gurus,

Rather often, we get attached documents in Netscape mail, For example,
one of the last message on this list was attached with the
following characteristics:

Name: lpr_osf32
Type: unspecified type (application/octet-stream)
Encoding: base64

Evidently, saving it gives an encoded document, unreadable.
Since this was sent to the list devoted to DU, I suppose that a tool
exists to decode and read it. What tool? Where can I found it?

Thank you for your answer.
