I'm fond of fortune and therefore would like to know whether a new version
of this neat little prog is to be released with Cygwin. Maybe with new
libraries of quotes?
Another point is this behaviour I noticed a while ago. Let's suppose, we
created a library looking like this:

<BOF>
One quote
%
Another one
%
And finally, a third one
%
<EOF>

and now we compile the corresponding .dat file, fortune (or rather strfile?)
assumes four different quotes because of the last '%' that precedes the
<EOF>.
It's not exactly a bug, though...

Best wishes,

Svartsjel
