This command is available with the uucp software installation option. Refer to [a manual with the abbreviation INSTALL] for information on how to install optional software.
uusend sends the file, source-file, to a given location, destination-file, on a remote system. The system need not be directly connected to the local system, but a chain of uucp.1c links must connect the two systems. If destination-file is a directory, the last component of the source-file name is used.
The source file can be `-', meaning to use the standard input. These options are primarily intended for internal use of uusend.
The destination file can include the ~username or ~/ syntax.
All systems along the line must have the uusend command available and allow remote execution of it.
Some UUCP systems have a bug where binary files cannot be the input to a uux command. If this bug exists in any system along the line, the file will show up severely corrupted.
