NAME
     uusend - sends a file to a remote host

SYNOPSIS
     uusend [-m file-permission] -r sourcefile
     system1!...remotefile

ARGUMENTS
     -m file-permission
          Causes the value of file-permission to be used as the
          file's file permission when it is delivered. The value
          of file-permission is an octal number.  If this
          argument is not specified, the file permissions of the
          input file are used.

     -r   Queues the job but does not start the file transfer.

     remotefile
          Specifies the name of the file when it is delivered.
          The value of remotefile can be an absolute pathname or
          can include the ~login-name syntax. For example, a
          remotefile argument with the value ~mike/letter causes
          the file specified by sourcefile to be named letter and
          placed in the home directory of the user named mike on
          the last system named in the uusend command line.

     sourcefile
          Specifies the name of a file that is to be sent.  The
          value of sourcefile can be -, which causes the standard
          input to be used.

     system1!...
          Specifies the systems involved.

DESCRIPTION
     uusend sends a file to a given location on a remote system
     by acting as a front-end to the uux command. The system need
     not be directly connected to the local system, but a chain
     of uucp links must be used to connect the two systems.

STATUS MESSAGES AND VALUES
     If uucp fails on any system beyond the first system, you
     will not be notified.

LIMITATIONS
     All systems in a multisystem uucp command must have the
     uusend command available and allow remote execution of it;
     for that reason, uusend is included with this release.

     Some versions of the uux command (but not the A/UX Release
     3.0 version) prevent the input of a binary file.  If this
     limitation exists in any system along the line, the file is
