Message-ID: <3798@solo7.cs.vu.nl> Date: 24 Oct 89 18:45:46 GMT References: <949@wubios.wustl.edu> <1589@ssp15.idca.tds.philips.nl> Organization: V.U. Informatica, Amsterdam, the Netherlands Lines: 8 Pnews is a simple shell script. Let's assume it's to be found in /usr/bin. Copy it to your own bin directory and hack it up to ask you if your signature should be included. This signature should NOT be put into a file named $HOME/.signature, else *inews* would include it too (iff it's shorter than 5 lines and iff there's more body than signature text). -- A symbolic link is a POINTER to a file, | Maarten Litmaath @ VU Amsterdam: a hard link is the file system's GOTO. | maart@cs.vu.nl, mcsun!botter!maart
