I wanted a quick command to generate some free software wisdom, who better than RMS can do this job ? :)

By editing stallman (quotes file) and rms.cow (ascii art) and renaming the script to your liking you can actually get a generator for wathever you want.

You can also just do things like

fortune myascii | cowsay -f myquotes

where myascii and myquotes are in /usr/share/fortune and /usr/share/cows respectively

Dependencies

• make (for the install)
• cowsay (to display ASCII rms)
• fortune (to get a random quote from the quote file)

Improvements

• better ascii art is welcome
• more quotes
