Remarks

This property contains the filename of the encoded data. If the encoded data is spread over several files, the filenames are passed to encoded_file in the form name?. Question marks "?" are expanded to numerals starting with 0. The filenames should exist as path\file000.ext and passed to encoded_file in the form name???. Question marks "?" are expanded to numerals starting with 000 (the number of zeros "0" equals that of question marks "?").

The class appends the extension ".uue", ".b16", or ".q_p" depending on format immediately after the generated numbers. file_cnt contains the number of encoded files.

See also the format property, and the MaxFileSize config setting when working with multiple files.
