Hi:
I use fortune to create my mail signature from a file of random quotes
in my home dir. Today is the first time in a long while that I've
updated the random quotes and now for the life of me I can't remember
what I need to do to make that text file readable and executable so
that the new quotes will be part of the fortune cycle ... I have a
vague memory that it's a root command but can't recall what exactly
... Another vague memory says that the command outputs a .dat file ...
Does this process ring a bell for anyone?
I'm sorry for how vague this inquiry is. But hopefully it will jog
someone's memory ...
Thanks in advance,
Adam

I googled fortune, thinking I'd like to use it to generate random
signatures, but got a number of hits, and don't know if there's a
specific one to use. Any help please.
