FYI, intro(5) says that Tflush tages an oldtag[4] as an argument, but
flush(5) says it should be oldtag[2].

How did you circle crop your picture?

More to the point, are there any plan9 tools for doing this?

Well, our current rendering model is perfect for it, but someone
would have to write a tool.

It is a cheap publicity ploy. I couldn't
think of anything relating it to JayLo.

I'm not sure even plan9's rendering model could

We were strictly talking about 'faces'.

Oh, I see the problem; it's not fixed in the PDF version of the manual
in /sys/man/vol1.pdf (presumably generated from vol1.ps, which would
also be in error), though it is fixed in the working manual.  Maybe the
solution then is just to rebuild the postscript and PDF files on
sources.

If you're going to go to that much work, how about putting all the other
stuff in vol2.pdf...please.

I believe builing vol 2 requires the elusive pm macro set/postprocessor
(at least that's what mk reports). Some people have the binary, some have
the source, some have a compiler....

Ok,

I have my new face. How I can put it in the sources tree?

put your face in the apropriate directory in /lib/face,
see face(6), update the .dict file and then submit a patch
for both of these files.

Re: [9fans] Face

Thanks Steve,

I sent the kix.1 file.
I spent three times to create the correct? patch, but is very very
interesting the patch command :-)

Here's my (somewhat psychedelic) face so it can be added to 
the standard face lib.

Re: [9fans] how to create (convert) face?

[rob pike, esq.]

I don't know why gif -c produced a 16-bit image, but iconv will handle
the conversion.  If it's a greyscale image, use iconv -c k4 to get a
4-bit image.  If it's color, use iconv -c m8 to get an 8-bit
colormapped image.

Reason: the image contains a 'transparency' index that is converted
to an alpha channel (this is documented in gif(1)).
The image produced starts with: m8a8 0 0 48 48 .
I think the real info is, in my case here, in the transparency index --
the image itself is just completely black, which confused me when I
extracted that part using iconv -c m8.
 iconv -c a8   seems to give (sort of) the result I'm after.

(and again, I'm posting just before leaving for home --
 more (the face) tomorrow -- sorry.)

I finally just used the xbm2ikon script to
produce the attached face file, that sort-of
resembles how I looked when I made some of
our local faces (I'm sorry, same low resolution
as in the X-Face header line).
