The kitty says 'still alive.'

Tonight I decided to set something interesting to happen every time I open the Terminal.
I decided to use cowsay (http://www.nog.net/~tony/warez/cowsay.shtml)
and fortune (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortune_(Unix) to have a "cow" (kitten in my case)
give out random quotes from Portal, the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
I was successful, and decided to share my method.

First, you should install both programs:

brew install fortune
brew install cowsay

Then navigate to where the random things fortune says are stored:

cd /usr/local/Cellar/fortune/9708/share/games/

You want to make a new file, so use your favorite text editor and create a file with the name portal:

mate portal

The format of these files is:

QUOTE
%
QUOTE

Add quotes until you're done, then save the file and close it. Next,
create a database (.dat) file out of it that fortune can read.
(To make this easier for future use, in my aliases file I put added a new
alias--alias mkfortune="strfile $1"--but this isn't necessary).

strfile portal

Now that you have one database, create any others you want.

Lastly, I placed the final command in the ~/.bashrc file which runs every time you open a new bash session:

fortune 34% portal 33% hg 33% monty | cowsay -s -f kitty.cow

In this case, fortune displays a random quote with equal probability from Portal, HHGTTG,
and Monty Python, then gives the output to cowsay, which displays/shows the quote in a speech
bubble coming out of a stoned kitty.

Type man cowsay and man fortune for other options/cool tricks. regarding the commands.

Hah, nice.
