I have been having great success attaching files to Pine and sending my
friends on Pine software, binaries, and sound. 
Question: Is it possible to attach a file to those not using Pine?
Thanks!

Yeah, that's one of the problems that I have with Pine.

You can do it one of 2 ways.  
1.  You can uuencode the file, and then use ^R to insert a text file.
	ie, "uuencode foo foo >foo.uue"  will make a file called 
	foo.uue.  Then, inside pine, you can read in the file as text.

2.  You can use plain old Mail.  The command while writing the body is:
	"~< ! uuencode foo foo
	It MUST be on a new line.

Of course, this all assumes that the recieving party knows how to 
uudecode a file (which is simple).

I'll modify that question a little.......

Is there any way to atttach textfiles without using ^R and *not*
have them encoded?
