Description

Faces is a Gtk+ program for monitoring a list visually. Typically this is a list of incoming mail messages. IMAP and POP mailbox formats are supported.

Faces has three different modes of operation: * The default will monitor for new mail. * You can monitor the whole of a mail file. * Custom monitoring. You can specify a program or shell script to run.

Lots of good examples can be downloaded from: ftp://ftp.cs.indiana.edu/pub/faces/picons/src/

Audio capabilities are also provided as a conditional compilation option.

Message after installing

NOTE:

For generating faces out of xbm files you must use
the following helper filters:

    xbm2ikon

and perhaps

    xbmsize48 or xbmcut48

e.g.

    1) generate a 48x48x1 xbm file
    2) cat <file.xbm> | xbm2ikon > file.ikon
    3) compface file.ikon > file.face

And the other way arround to display a face

Note uncompface -X is the same as

   uncompface | ikon2xbm

useful for exmh!
