First: Drop OE like the turd it is. Second: apt-get install signify. This (and the similar 'sigrot') are signature rotation tools. Signify, in particular, allows for weighting the sigs to be rotated through. Some may also note that I take the "4 lines" guideline somewhat loosely, though I try not to abuse this unless I feel the message is particularly important. E.g.: below. Peace. -- Karsten M. Self <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://kmself.home.netcom.com/ What Part of "Gestalt" don't you understand?
