Hi all
Under Slackware, whenever I would open up konsole (a terminal app), so a
fortune would be displayed before the typical Bash prompt.
Is there a way of setting it up under Debian so that it can do the same
thing?
Just put a call to the fortune program in ~/.bash_profile .
.bash_profile is run only on login shells. Use .bashrc is you want it
for *every* console:
,----[ from my .bashrc ]
| echo
| echo "Fortune cookie:"
| echo
| fortune -a
| echo
`----
