- WHAT IT DOES
-
- Cookie is an external which will generate a "fortune cookie" on entry into the
- door. Simply set the external to launch on logon or logoff through your BBS
- program, and your users will see a fortune.
-
- HOW TO INSTALL
-
- Copy Cookie and its accompanying files to a folder, and set up an external
- launch command in your BBS program. Run Cookie once locally, and set the option
- file path.
-
- If you want to add Fortune Cookie files, simply create a text file with the
- fortunes separated by an "@", like the current files (use them as an example).
- Then, open "Cookie File" and add the filename on the bottom, and increment the
- number on the first line by 1.
-
- ABOUT FORTUNE COOKIES
-
- These Fortune files (except LAWYER.TXT) were taken from a HyperCard program
- called "Fortune Cookies" by Dennis C. DeMars, written sometime in 1987. The
- original source of the fortunes is (I believe) the Internet, and the UNIX
- program "fortune". LAWYER.TXT was downloaded from a local BBS, and appears to
- have been pulled off the Internet too. I claim no copyright or responsibility
- for any of the fortunes, only for the external to display them.
-
- I don't know if a program like this exists already, but I'm unemployed, bored,
- and waiting for school to start, so I wrote it anyway. Enjoy!
