Short: AFortunes; Shows random quotes. Author: Kalle Räisänen Uploader: Kalle Räisänen Type: misc/misc Version: 1.0.8, Release 2. Replaces: misc/misc/afortunes.lha Architecture: m68k-amigaos This is an AmigaOS implementation of the UNIX program Fortunes (it's not a port: the source is completely original, clumsy, but original); released under the GNU General Public License (source included). Displays a random quote, either in a requester or a CLI-window. Main Features: - output in a requester or a CLI. - specify multiple custom quote-files (from which quotes are read). - three quote-files included (star trek, linux & "zippy" quotes). - includes program to convert DOS-textfiles to Amiga/UNIX-format (win2ami 1.0.2). - includes program to convert Amiga/UNIX-textfiles to DOS-format (ami2win 1.0). - includes program to count quotes in a quote-file (CountForts 0.10). - includes program to split big quote-files (fsplit 1.1). - source for all programs included, including previous versions. Changes since last version: - Ooops, accidentaly included the wrong version of fsplit, this one should work, sorry. - CountForts bumped to 0.10, now displays in a requester (or a CLI). New syntax: "countforts [-t|--text] file(s)", the -t (or --text) works like in afortunes. - See changekog.txt (in the archive) and readme.txt (also in the archive) for more information. Installation: - Unpack the afortunes.lha-archive with "lha e afortunes.lha [destination-dir/]" - Copy the afortunes, countforts, win2ami, ami2win and fsplit binaries to c: (or some- where else in your path). - Copy the "fortunes.txt" file to sys:s/ System Requirements: - AmigaOS 2.04+ (Kickstart 37 and above).
