I'm not sure if that is the entire source for FaceLift.  It may only
have sample source code for writing device drivers that will work with
FaceLift.  If I recall correctly, Michael Hackett, the programmer who
wrote it, kept the core of the program to himself until it was tested
and stable.

I don't think FaceList was ever finished as Michael and others were
waiting for Sequential to send them the source code to the Second
Sight's ROM so they could fix the bugs in it that were causing them
problems.
