*puts on fortunes-debian-hints maintainer hat*
Suggested tips always welcome. After reading the origional post a second
time, I think the post itself is a bit much for a hint ('fortune' output is
normally only a couple of lines), but I'd love to see someone make a short
HOWTO on this, put it somewhere (like the DebianWiki, or any other stable,
accessible place) and then file a wishlist bug for a hint that gives a
pointer to this location. :)
Now, if I could just figure out a good, sane way to get fortune to grasp
the concept of supporting multiple languages *sanely* and in a way that
lent itself to making the lives of translators easy...
