I really like this patch. Farbfeld contains some ingenious ideas, and
blessing sent with it was a change due to happen.
Now, to dive into this idea a bit more, farbfeld is a great intermediate
format. If you store farbfeld without compression on your hard drive, you
kind of missed the point of it.
Farbfeld is very unixy, as it benefits from pipelined-solutions. sent is
not a pipe-based system, and to be honest, I've not yet come up with a
good way to either decompress farbfeld-compressed images or ad-hoc running
png's through png2ff and supplying the stream to the program.
Any ideas in this direction are much appreciated.
Cheers
