Kevin and anyone else who doesn't know,
you can create your own quotes file that fortune will parse. In a plain text editor, write your quotes, separating each one with a percent sign on its own line. For example: % Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country. % You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink. % He who laughs last laughs loudest % Assuming you save this file as "myquotes," just point fortune to it: $> fortune /path/to/myquotes He who laughs last laughs loudest HTH -- RickS Every life has a story. --A&E Biography ____________________________________________________ Want to buy your Pack or Services from Mandriva?
