|
|
;;; Commentary:
|
|
;; This utility allows you to automatically cut regions to a fortune
|
|
;; file. In case that the region stems from an article buffer (mail or
|
|
;; news), it will try to automatically determine the author of the
|
|
;; fortune. It will also allow you to compile your fortune-database
|
|
;; as well as providing a function to extract a fortune for use as your
|
|
;; signature.
|
|
;; Of course, it can simply display a fortune, too.
|
|
;; Use prefix arguments to specify different fortune databases.
|
|
|
|
;;; Installation:
|
|
|
|
;; Please check the customize settings - you will at least have to modify the
|
|
;; values of `fortune-dir' and `fortune-file'.
|
|
|
|
;; I then use this in my .gnus:
|
|
;;(message "Making new signature: %s" (fortune-to-signature "~/fortunes/"))
|
|
;; This automagically creates a new signature when starting up Gnus.
|
|
;; Note that the call to fortune-to-signature specifies a directory in which
|
|
;; several fortune-files and their databases are stored.
|
|
|
|
;; If you like to get a new signature for every message, you can also hook
|
|
;; it into message-mode:
|
|
;; (add-hook 'message-setup-hook
|
|
;; '(lambda ()
|
|
;; (fortune-to-signature)))
|
|
;; This time no fortune-file is specified, so fortune-to-signature would use
|
|
;; the default-file as specified by fortune-file.
|
|
|
|
;; I have also this in my .gnus:
|
|
;;(add-hook 'gnus-article-mode-hook
|
|
;; '(lambda ()
|
|
;; (define-key gnus-article-mode-map "i" 'fortune-from-region)))
|
|
;; which allows marking a region and then pressing "i" so that the marked
|
|
;; region will be automatically added to my favourite fortune-file.
