* Install fortune
* Create a script that inserts the appropriate tags [1] and calls
fortune.
or
* create some text-files that contain the text you want to appear in
your sig and name them text001, text002, etc.
* import a random file into your sig each time your script is called
To help you started I'll include my script here:
--- start ---
#!/bin/bash
CURRENT_UPTIME=$(uptime)
CURRENT_KERNEL=$(uname -r)
CURRENT_MACHINE=$(uname -m)
#CURRENT_RELEASE="SuSE 8.2 Pro"
CURRENT_RELEASE=$(rpm -q k_deflt --queryformat %{DISTRIBUTION})
MEM="256MB"
NAME="Mertens Bram \"M8ram\""
EMAIL=$1
LINUXID="Linux User #349737"
printf "<pre>-- \n"
printf "# %-22s %-29s %20s #\n" "$NAME" "$EMAIL" "$LINUXID"
printf "# %-25s kernel %-15s %-5s %8s RAM #\n" "$CURRENT_RELEASE"
"$CURRENT_KERNEL" "$CURRENT_MACHINE" "$MEM"
printf "#%68s #\n" "$CURRENT_UPTIME"
printf "</pre>\n"
--- end ---
This script is called from different scripts to include the appropriate
e-mail address.
