Hi,

I'm looking for a forture/cookie program that accepts a file of "one-liners"
in a straight text format.  The one Simpson/fortune program that I've seen
has the text of the "one-liners" imbedded in the binary itself.  I consider
this pretty useless as I am forced for a new "release" just so more lines
can be added to the program.  If what I'm looking for does not exist then
I'd be interested in the source code to a fortune like program that I can
modify myself.

Thanx,
Ed Stuart
