And this shows _why_ yenc is superior to other methods of encoding. This pic,
encoded with yenc, and with several lines of text added, took up 3590 lines.
This pic, encoded so that luddites using MSOE can see it without adding a
_free_ codec, took up 10084 lines. Nearly three times the size.

I will never post pix in anything other than yenc, unless something more
efficient is developed. Then I'll use _that_.
