I need to work with a bitmapped graphic at the pixel level. Someone on our campus wrote a unix finger server that serves faces. They digitized a bunch of people's faces and stored them online. A finger client can specify a certain option and get back a face. The face is represented as a PBM format bitmap (apparently it is some standard - basically you get back a horizontal and vertical number of pixels, followed by a string of binary data, one bit per pixel). I am writing a HyperCard finger client using the mactcp toolkit. I want to be able to retrieve a face and stick it into a HyperCard field. Can I do it? I already have the basic finger client working, minus the face stuff. Are there any XCMDs that deal with pixels? *********************************************************************** Robin Goldstone, Systems Software Specialist California State University, Chico Computing Services rgoldstone@oavax.csuchico.edu
