COOKIE, by Jim Blandy , 1990 modified by Karl Fogel , 1995 Like Unix "fortune", but can be invoked on arbitrary files of cookies. Type "cookie -usage" to see, uh, usage.

Here is a sample cookie file, modulo the dotted-lines: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "It's a fairly embarrassing situation to admit that we can't find 90 percent of the universe." -- Dr. Bruce H.
