Read the pandora(1) man page for complete details.  Pandora also looks in
/usr/local/lib/faces and /usr/lib/faces as documented on the man page.  We've
set up a face server here at SGI where we put all the faces on one machine
in /usr/local/lib/faces.  Everyone whose interested mounts that directory
on /usr/lib/faces on their machine.  The print spooler and mail programs
will probably start using faces soon.
