Re: Random .sigs in UNIX?!?

Re: Random .sigs in UNIX?!?

: One alternative is to have a series of .sig files in a list (with a
: matching pointer file) and have the current .sigfile 'updated' after 
: (or before) each invocation of your news-reader.

: (script writing required, or knowlegde of awk, perl...whatever)

: By the way, this wouldn't be 'random', but it *could* hit every .sig in
: turn, which I *think* is better anyway.

what i did was i made a directory called .sig, and put all my sigs in 
there. only problem is it only genertate random sigs in usenet, not in 
e-mail. if anyone knows how to get random e-mail sigs as well, could you 
send me the scripts i need or what ever it takes?? itd be apreciated.
Night....
