Package: supybot
Version: 0.83.3-1
Severity: minor

Hello,

The comment in the .conf file generated with the wizard says:

###
# Determines whether fortune will retrieve offensive fortunes along with
# the normal fortunes. This sends the -o option to the fortune program.
#
# Default value: False
###
supybot.plugins.Unix.fortune.offensive: False

but according to fortune(6):

-o     Choose only from potentially offensive aphorisms.

I see three ways to fix this:

1. change the text to something like:

###
# Determines whether fortune will retrieve only offensive fortunes
# This sends the -o option to the fortune program.
#
# Default value: False
###
supybot.plugins.Unix.fortune.offensive: False

2. change the plugin (and text) to actually use fortune -a which is more 
likely to be what the user wants.

3. make the option non-boolean with options: True, False, Always (or 
something like that)

Nr.2 seems to me a good solution an probably easy to implement (should I 
try to make a patch?), but nr.3 would still offer a possibility for 
those masochists who want to be always offended ;)

Regards,
Andrei
