> Typesetting my annual Christmas letter, there are one or
> two places where I would like to insert a smiley [the
> graphical version, as displayed by (say) Seamonkey, not
> just ":-)"].  I can find nothing in the UK TeX FAQ, and
> TeX Live 2009 doesn't seem to have a "Smilies" font, so
> I wonder whether others have accomplished this, and if
> so, how ?  A Plain TeX solution would be preferred.
