Mac Forum / Applications / Eudora / April 2004X-face
Is there any version of Eudora that supports X-face? Thanks, earle *  Signature__ __/\_\ /\_\/_/ \/_/\_\ earle \/_/ jones > Is there any version of Eudora that supports X-face? > > Thanks, > > earle > * You paste the X-face in the "Extra news header lines" section. You can save the whole thing as stationery and assign it to a personality if you like, as well. P.S. I used Eudora for posting this message. SignatureG. A.

I used Eudora for posting this message. I think it has a multiple personality disorder--It identified itself as Thoth. :-) Eudora won't show X-Faces on incoming mail, but "X-Face Extractor" (available at <http://www.emailman.com/>) is a script that can send an X-Face from Eudora to be displayed in Saving Face. I used to use it with OS 8.x; I'm not sure if it still works in OS X. I notice in the blurb on emailman.com that it says it requires the hard drive be named "Macintosh HD." I've never done any scripting, so I don't know how difficult it would be to change that. (I've changed the name of my hard drive, as allegedly that can reduce the risk of damage from malware.)

I've never done any scripting, so I don't know how >difficult it would be to change that. In Applescript, it ought to be trivially easy. But then all the Applescripts I have written (to switch 'personalities', aka 'settings', in Eudora 3.1.3 Light) have been very small so... Applescript guru I'm not. As OS10 supports Applescript, there's a good chance it will work there too. I confess that X-faces are a pretty low priority for me and neither my mailer nor my newsreader will display them, but just out of curiosity from time to time I copy the whole X-face header line into a text editor, save it and drop it onto GraphicConverter, which displays them very nicely.

Eudora has no such feature. Internet Config supports such an attribute as do some newsreaders, including some that use Internet Config, but Eudora's Internet Config support is rather limited and would never have any reason to use that attribute, as it has no way to post news articles built-in. > You can save the whole thing as stationery and assign it to a personality > if you like, as well. > > P.S. I used Eudora for posting this message. No, you did not. Eudora does not have any facility for posting articles to news. Your article carried this header: User-Agent: Thoth/1.7.2 (Carbon/OS X) Indicating that unless you are using something else that falsifies that header, you used Thoth to post that message. SignatureNow where did I hide that website... >> You paste the X-face in the "Extra news header lines" section. > >Eudora has no such feature. Quite right. but SuperSleek, among others, does. I'm told it works in the latest versions in OS10, but I can't confirm that. It should be a very simple thing to insert an X-Face via SuperSleek. As to whether it would be *desirable*, that's another question. But hell, let's all have fun... SignaturePeter > P.S. I used Eudora for posting this message. That's odd.
