Description-en: Fortune Cookies with Tags
Like fortune(6), tfortune is a Unix command line utility which prints
a random epigram. Epigrams are stored as plain text files, but they
must be annotated with tags to make full use of the features which
tfortune offers over other implementations.
.
Tfortune has a built-in matching language for epigrams. User-supplied
tag expressions define subsets of admissible epigrams. If a tag
expression is given, epigrams are picked from the admissible subset
only.
