Yes it's Base64. I wonder why your Linux system does seem to lack it, 
because uuencode/uudecode is defined by POSIX and thus should be part of 
any more-or-less POSIX compliant systems (and Linux _is_ definitely 
sufficiently POSIX-compliant). At least the man-page on the Redhat 7.3 
box I'm currently sitting in front of says so.

Anyway, for all the other OSes (non-Unix) one can surely find some 
(GUI-)Tools which help with converting such encodings.

-- 
(defun f(p x)(If(Eq x nil)nil(If(p(Car x))(Cons(Car x)(f p(Cdr x)))(f p
(Cdr x)))))(defun q(x)(Q nil x))(defun Q(a x)(If(Eq x nil)a(Q(Cons(Car
x)(Q a(f(Lt(Car x))(Cdr x))))(f(Gt(Car x))(Cdr x)))))
