>Environment:

Running a csh based shell (tcsh)

>Description:

fortune (if installed) is run from .login by default. After a while you start to
see the same old fortunes being presented even though there are many fortune
files installed in /usr/share/games/fortune.

I would suggest we make the line in .login 'fortune all' so a fortune is picked
from any of the files.

The only problem I could see from this was that some limericks seemed to have
been misfiled and really belong in limericks-o. Not having time to sort through
them all just yet I moved them all to limerick-o. Better to err with safety I
felt.

Login in lots :-)
