        If you have the yydecode utility on your system, you can decode these 
articles; it's pretty good about taking things like "yydecode *" and 
producing usable files.  :)

        I think Pan does not use external utilities, but has the decoding 
built in.  Aside from having a filter auto-save certain article, I 
don't think one can automate yy-decoding except by managing to get a 
Pan with that built in.  (No, I haven't got one, but mostly because I 
haven't taken the time to do so.)  I do agree that it would be a handy 
option.
