You may want to use signify - it allows you to have e.g. random elements in your
signature
too. I use it for getting a fortune in there, but you can use it to get the output from
any command in there.
Signify works by having ~/.signature as a FIFO, and a daemon process constantly trying
to write to it.
Hope this helps
