      NAME
           uusend - send a file to a remote host

      SYNTAX
           uusend [ -m mode ] sourcefile sys1!sys2!..!remotefile

      DESCRIPTION
           Uusend sends a file to a given location on a remote system.
           The system need not be directly connected to the local
           system, but a chain of uucp(1) links needs to connect the
           two systems.

           If the -m option is specified, the mode of the file on the
           remote end will be taken from the octal number given.
           Otherwise, the mode of the input file will be used.

           The sourcefile can be ``-'', meaning to use the standard
           input.  Both of these options are primarily intended for
           internal use of uusend.

           The remotefile can include the ~userid syntax defined in
           uucp(1).

      DIAGNOSTICS
           If anything goes wrong any further away than the first
           system down the line, you will never hear about it.

      SEE ALSO
           uux(1), uucp(1), uuencode(1)

      BUGS
           This command shouldn't exist, since uucp should handle it.

           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 severly munged.
