Let's take an example, when I was ~ 35 years younger than now. A buddy of mine had a 3 year old son. His son would insert an MS DOS floppy disk and power on his XT clone computer. Once booted his 3 year old son removed the floppy and inserted his favourite game, entered the command on the command line and started playing. Kids today are much more capable than my friend's son was so many years ago. We already have a port that can support it. Someone could repocopy the port to just install fortune. It's 2017. If Red Hat doesn't support fortune why should we? -- Cheers, Cy Schubert FreeBSD UNIX: Web: http://www.FreeBSD.org The need of the many outweighs the greed of the few.
