OK I ended up using flex as I don't know perl well. After spending 2 hours I was able to convert fortune signature files to pegasus signature files, as you can see, I started using sigs since yesterday..;-) . Of course the later stuff with pegaus still needs be done. But it was a good refresher for flex. Thanks for all help. I didn't wanted to write sed sommand that span more than half screen, where backspace won't work and it's difficult to embedd them in a script. A small flex program did all the job... If anybody needs that program/precooked pegasus signature files, write me offline. So far I have zapped startrek/linuxcoockie/definitions as I don't have much time to explore others..
