Learning programming makes me think signature-scripting could be a nice homework. I have googled for signature-scripts but with unsatisfying results. One idea i had: execute "fortune" and writing the output into a ".signature" file, which then gets used for mails. Are there other/smarter approaches? What other/better "signature-resources" could be used? Thanks. jan
