I missed previous posts in this thread, but in Mozilla/TB under Account
Settings you have the item Attach this Signature where you can specify

Not with the same effect. Something external would have to
trigger the executable to fire off so it would output to the
file being attached.
For example, Kmail lets one specify an executable script
to execute, then it uses the output as the signature. Many
people put the output of uptime into their sig, so their
sig contains the exact uptime at the time that they replied
to the message with the sig on it.
With your suggestion, to achieve the same effect one
would have to have this 'signature' script running in the
background, say with cron, every minute or so dumping
the output to a text file that is the file specified as the
signature attach file in Mozilla/TB. Course, this assumes
that Mozilla/TB doesn't cache that file, in which case
even the cron example wouldn't work.
Ah, OK.
I think what you may be looking for is this extension for TB:
Signature 0.4.0.4.200610221528
which you will find by going to-
