Or, perhaps it is as simple as Avinash wanting to... 1.) Edit his/her MOTD file to print to screen a set text message at login. (Edit your /etc/motd file, Avinash, to make it say what you want it to say.)
and 2.) Attach a signature.txt file to his/her outgoing mail, such as I have attached to mine below. Write one in your home directory (~/signature.txt) and point your mail app to it, _but_ only 4 lines, Avinash, or you're gonna get back more mail than you care to read :) ALTHILTM, montefin Viktor Rosenfeld wrote: > > Graeme Mathieson wrote: > > > OK, I'm not quite sure what you're asking here, but there are a number of > > possibilities... > > > > "Avinash m Gowda" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > > > > I wanted to knw how to print a file which is > > > in text on screen whenever i log in > > > that is printing a quote everytime i login > > > or printing a quote in my mail everytime i send > > > a mail. > > The way I understand it, is that you want to print the fortune > database.
