: Simply create a directory in your $HOME directory called  .Sig

: Any file in that directory will be in the list that tin will use
: to randomly select a signature. Also, if you create a file in your
: $HOME called  .sigfixed, that file will ALWAYS be included above
: your random sig. Have fun!

  Your signature directory doesn't even have to be name .Sig as long as 
you tell tinrc where it is.  I didn't know about the .sigfixed!  That's 
cool.  THanks for the posting this info!
