README
fortune is a command line script that displays a random quotation.
It is similar to the BSD fortune program, originally written by Ken Arnold. Unlike Arnold's program, however, this version is written in PHP, using Symfony components.
Installation
Use Composer to install the application:
composer create-project jonathanmaron/fortune ~/app/fortune
Usage
$ ~/app/fortune/bin/fortune
"A strong passion for any object will ensure success, for the desire of the end
will point out the means."
-- Henry Hazlitt
By default, fortune wraps lines at terminal window width. You can change this by specifying the --wordwrap option:
$ ~/app/fortune/bin/fortune -wordwrap=25
"Success listens only to
applause. To all else it
is deaf."
-- Elias Canetti
To disable word wrapping specify --wordwrap=0.
It is recommended to add fortune to your path:
$ cd ~/bin
$ ln -s ~/app/fortune/bin/fortune fortune
<log out> <log in>
$ fortune
"Be cool to people. Be nice to as many people as you can. Smile to as many people
as you can, and have them smile back at you."
-- Joe Rogan
