From: Johannes Findeisen you@hanez.org

i have yesterday installed fortune on my workstation. it's a gentoo -linux box running kde 2.2.2. i have found an article about making a signature file for kmail. i have tried the script (http://linux-sxs.org/mailsig.html) and thought, that this is a little bit complicated.


why should i use cron to update a signature file and then include it in kmail?? i have written a little script to do it onthefly. just create a script like this, make it executable, include it as signature-file and select: "File is a Programm". thats it. the script creates a new fortune signature with your on header.... ;-)

##SCRIPT STARTS HERE##
#!/bin/bash
echo "Johannes Findeisen - Network Computing"
echo "you@hanez.org"
echo ""
echo "----------------------------------------------------------------------"
/usr/bin/fortune chalkboard
##SCRIPT ENDS HERE##
