-./decode INFILE

-./decode sample0.txt.rle

+The decoder should be able to read the header and find out the filename if a second argument is not given. If a second argument is given it will use the second argument instead of taking the filename from the header.
 Decode will output a file of similar name without the .rle extension after running your decoder.
