This is Debian/GNU Linux's prepackaged version of James Ashton's 
compface utility. This package provides 48x48x1 image compression 
and decompression to allow the inclusion of face images within 
mail headers using the field name `X-face: '.

This package was put together by me, Hakan Ardo 
<hakan@munin.ub2.lu.se> from the sourcecode I obtained from
ftp.cs.indiana.edu:/pub/faces/compface/compface.tar.Z. I have 
applyed the compface patches found in the exmh-1.6.9-2 package:

compface.patch:
The compface.patch file has a patch that teaches the compface
and uncompface programs how to read .xbm format (X bitmap) files,
instead of the arcane .ikon files it used before.

And I have made som changes to the Makefile to compile and link the 
library sharead added adding support for the Debian package maintenance
scheme, by adding various debian/* files.
