use Perl

... and I finally managed to assemble a fortune file about Jack Bauer facts.

I looked at some websites that carry a lot of facts about Jack, like www.twentyfour.tv/jackbauer, or http://www.jackbauerisgod.com...

Of course, this was done with a Perl script. The good guys among you :-) already know that that very script is included in the shiny new pointless CPAN distribution named Acme::24.

Here it is!
You should generate also the ".dat" file to use with fortune program. The command is:

strfile -r jackbauer

This generates a "jackbauer.dat" file that should be copied into your "/usr/share/fortune" (or whatever) folder. Enjoy!
