Summary: A list monitor with a visual output
Description: 
Faces is a program for visually monitoring a list (typically a list of
incoming mail messages, a list of jobs in a print queue or a list of
system users).  Faces operates in five different modes: monitoring for
new mail, monitoring an entire mail file, monitoring a specified print
queue, monitoring users on a machine and custom monitoring.  Faces also
includes a utility for including a face image (a compressed, scanned
image) with mail messages.  The image has to be compressed in a certain
way, which can then be uncompressed and displayed on-the-fly in the mail
program.  This feature of faces is typically used with the exmh mail
handling system.

Install faces if you'd like to use its list monitoring capability or
its face image inclusion capability.  If you would like to include
face images in email, you'll also need to install the faces-xface
package.  If you would like to develop xface applications, you'll need
to also install faces-devel.
