There are a number of fortunes even in the non-offensive database that I just don't want sent vor various reasons. The fortune files are just regular text files with the fortunes separated by a percent sign by itself on a line. You can put this file in some place where fortune will look for it like /usr/local/games/fortunes and then run 'strfile filename" where filename is the name of the fortune file you created. Then just add to raoul's fortune call above before the greater-than the name of your fortune file. I hope at least someone has found this interesting or informative. - -- "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.
