Use the following script to convert a JPEG into the correct
format/size, then enter it into the Headers of Claws as Face (*not*
X-Face; they're different). It's not a script of my making, and the
author is obviously so generous, he doesn't even credit himself.
You'll need ppmnorm, pnmscale, ppmquant, pnmtopng and mimencode in your
$PATH.
#!/bin/bash
jpg=$1
png=$2
if [ "$jpg" = "" -o "$png" = "" ]; then
echo "Usage: make-face <JPG-FILE> <BASE64-FILE>"
exit
fi
quant=16
found=false
tmp=/tmp/make-face.$$.tmp
while [ "$found" = "false" ]; do
echo -n "Trying quantization $quant ($jpg)..."
djpeg "$jpg"\
| ppmnorm\
| pnmscale -width 48 -height 48\
| ppmquant $quant\
| pnmtopng\
| mimencode > $tmp
size=`ls -l $tmp | awk '{ print $5; }'`
if [ $size -lt 993 ]; then
echo -n "Face:" > "$png"
for i in `cat $tmp`; do
echo -n " " >> "$png"
echo "$i" >> "$png"
done
rm $tmp
found=true
echo "done"
else
quant=`expr $quant - 2`
echo "too big ($size)"
fi
done
