    Many newsreaders have the ability to display xface. If you are using tin,
    and your DISPLAY variable is set, it will pop up a window with a picture in
    it. Many people explicitly disable this however. Do a man on tin.

    I find that some rslight users have trouble finding it. bsd mostly. I
    haven't run bsd in a while so I'm not sure if it's easily available.
