fd59162341 He who receives ideas from me, receives instruction himself without 
lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine receives light
without darkening me.

c6fb0661a9 Give a better advice on how to convert DOS text to UNIX text. 
The former tip used `col -bx', which would not only discard
CR's, but also expand TAB's and remove BS'en.  This effect is
not always wanted.

58140d2518 Make the on-disk format of .dat files produced by strfile(8) 
architecture independent.  Besides the fixed-width types in
the header, the offsets are now stored as 64-bit off_t (also
in big endian format).

4d38744415 An aggressive little script I used to trim out duplicate fortunes. 2005-02-07 21:15:16 +00:00

82f6fa7730 Trim more cookies, by playing with different hash functions, 
e.g., by trimming all non-alphabet characters and whitespace,
converting to lowercase, and considering only first (or last)
N letters (maybe only consonants).  The fortune editor then
displays all fortunes that have the same hash, and allows to
remove one of them.  The rest is written to stdout.

Due to one of the bugs (^C was the first character of each line
when sorting), the -b option of sort(1) didn't take any effect,
so stay bug-compatible, and remove the -b option.

Transcription of the Bell Communications Research Colloquium Seminar
7 March 1986 by J. F. Kaiser:

        There are wavelengths that people cannot see, there are
sounds that people cannot hear, and maybe computers have thoughts
that people cannot think.
