Will, you could build a fortune cookie database: build your list of tips in this way:
% tip of the day: #rm -rf /mnt/windows % other tip of the day: echo /etc/passwd | mail romain then run 'strfile', which is part of fortune-mod which builds a ".dat" file ( that's an index file, I believe) then just run 'fortune newbiedoc' ( well , for me it'll rather be 'fortune /home/romain/newbiedoc') HTH, Romain -- [The French Riviera is] a sunny place for shady people. -- Somerset Maugham
