In addition, a LOT of stuff isn't even formatted correctly (lines are hard-wrapped at a specific line length) with the result that the fortunes file as it sits *doesn't even work with fortune(1)*. I started by deleting all the detritus from the Before 9front Days and then went through and deleted anything that didn't meet my arbitrarily high bar for comedy and/or poignancy. The remaining few things that DID meet my bar, but were quotes from ircnets, I removed anyway, because no logging! Anyway, here's my proposed replacement for /sys/games/lib/fortunes xoxo khm --gN7NAak5omEtxan0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=fortunes-proposed [ 35.998] (II) Integrated Camera: Configuring as keyboard assert(assert(assert(assert(assert(assert(1)))))) /* check for cosmic radiation */ [...] The cast spent three weeks learning how to type, rollerblade and got to know each other. -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackers_(film) Nobody wants to say how this works.
