Hello,


I'm attaching a patch that adds a small section to the translator_primer
webpage.  It describes how to combine /hurd/run and fortune to create a
~/.signature file.  I pretty much copied it from one of Samuel past
presentation slides.


Thanks,


Joshua


P.S. I sent this email in Gnus, but I'm not sure if it went through.=20
Some of the other clients are hard to use too..
