Re: X-Face and depth

[palmieri@math.washington.edu (John H. Palmieri)]

Two addenda: you can delete "tr -d '[:blank:]' |" from the long line
near the end of the function (that line is the only change from
Lars' version).  Also, while this seems to work for me, it doesn't
give the same result twice in a row; anyone know why?

For example, when I execute

  (gnus-convert-image-to-gray-x-face "palmieri.gif" 3)

I get 

  X-Face: $GbgRf%-(p'HfD?g-[@{P5sFeYQTF9+LC!k>'tW2PTynVg$~5^X*[k-4w!NXV<JFpqayE_-
   50HDA"]Dz6KPmri
  [etc.]

When I run it again, I get

  X-Face: ?t<i|=y.$,lnu(K:uh3#nT^d@~9J~TEi%CB<=1HWr~K1~hNuqca.j&sk]2hBFt'l$"tD_Xq
   ia#AXW(_xgvu0
  [etc.]

The next time, I get

  X-Face: .DK?X/SSWeRfw6}fwd>mY\:,'xe]K_;U3Fv[*}v3or<y5|b"5G&mSSJ5AcW16xCN9sKI*@H
   &WrO>E(*J1[)?)
  [etc.]
