Re: Fortune



I like to display "fortune" or the "dhammapada" in my x-window at login, 
so I have in ~/.xsession
	xmessage -center "`dp`"  &
In fact, I like it so much that I generate a new dhammapada every 10 minutes 
on an X-window in the fourth quadrant:
	xterm -T dhammapada   -geometry +1024+1118    -e   watch -n 600 dp &
