Modified by Frank Schmitt" (with-temp-buffer (insert face) (and (eq 0 (apply 'call-process-region (point-min) (point-max) "uncompface" 'delete '(t nil) nil "-X" nil)) (progn (goto-char (point-min)) (eq 0 (call-process-region (point-min) (point-max) "xbmtopbm" 'delete '(t nil))) ) (buffer-string))))))) -- Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.
