This is the fourth general release of a "faces" server for monitoring a list visually. Typically this is a list of incoming mail messages. Faces has three different modes of operation: (a) The default will monitor for new mail. By default, only the last ten messages are displayed. (b) You can monitor the whole of a mail file. The open window will automatically adjust it's size to correctly show the face icons. (c) Custom monitoring. You can specify a program or shell script to run. There are lots of good examples that have already been written and these can be downloaded from: ftp://ftp.cs.indiana.edu/pub/faces/picons/src/ Included with this release, is the ability to include a face image with your mail message using an X-Face header line (plus continuation lines). Faces expects this line to be in a certain compressed format, and uncompresses it, and displays that image on-the-fly. Audio capabilities are also provided as a conditional compilation option.
