The conference advertising for at least one year said something about like Come to USENIX and get saved, playing on the saving of the image to disk versus the Christian getting saved, which often happens at Christian conferences. You also got a copy of your file, converted to a 7-bit mail-safe format called x-face format (I don't know that it isn't plain uuencoding without the extra UU header and footer data, but it is specific to the USENIX images). Cleverly enough, people then started writing software that would decode the data and display the picture, and folks then started including their pictures in their email headers. I vaguely recall an X-based GUI mail program that would pop up a face when you opened someone's message if the X-Face: header were present. What a delightful example of how to program for viruses, and way before Outlook hit the scene :-) Thus, you must go through the steps above to generate your own X-Face: header (well, if you want it to make any sense; you *could* just put any old garbage in there, and according to at least one subscriber here that would be completely valid and logical). Now, on the other hand, if you already have an x-face file and you simply want to include it, the answer is RTFM to learn about my_hdr. I suspect, however, that's not what you were asking. % % -- % budsz :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg! msg23532/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Should be trivial I use http://www.spinnaker.de/mutt/view-x-face You need the compface package, and icontopbm (both readily available), but you pipe it a message and it displays it on X (using xview here), or if theres no X terminal it'll convert it to ASCII which works nicely (pbmtoascii). Going back to the original point, the compface package has info on making an X-Face in the man page IIRC. Regards, Luke smime.p7s Description: application/pkcs7-signature

Windows can multitask great! It can crash and start at the same time!
