fortune
is a command line program that displays a quote or proverb when run. It is available on most operating systems:

sudo pacman -S fortune-mod
# Debian/Ubuntu (WSL)
sudo apt install fortune-mod
# openBSD
doas pkg_add fortune
# nix-shell
nix-shell -p fortune
# Mac
brew install fortune
Save the list of fortunes and the corresponding .dat
file to /usr/share/fortune/
by running the following:
curl -LO https://github.com/gsobell/baduk-fortune/raw/shodan-branch/baduk
curl -LO https://github.com/gsobell/baduk-fortune/raw/shodan-branch/baduk.dat
sudo mv baduk baduk.dat /usr/share/fortune
To install on Arch-based distros, use the PKGBUILD:
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gsobell/baduk-fortune/shodan-branch/PKGBUILD
makepkg -i
To recieve a fortune, open a terminal, and run:
fortune baduk
For a new fortune every time you log on, add the above to your shell config (i.e. .bashrc
or .zshrc
)
For extra fun, use in conduction with cowsay
or cowfortune
!
Q: Why isn't it called go-fortune?
A: Because it already exists, it's a fortune rewrite in GoLang.
Q: My favorite quote is missing. Can you add it?
A: Sure! Open a pull request! Since a new .dat
file has to be generated each time, additions will be added in batches.
