Description-en: Graphical configurable talking cow
A GTK+ version of the classic cowsay Perl script. It displays a cute
pop-up cow on your desktop with a speech bubble and some customizable
text. There's also a dream mode where the cow can display images. It
comes with a fortune(6) wrapper script, xcowfortune, which you can
cron to deliver periodic fortune cookies via the cow.
