Subject: A feature request...

I use tin for reading news.  One of the neatest features is the
way it handles signature files.  It has a standard signature
(.sigfixed I think) like Pine does now, but also allows the
inclusion of a second, random signature.  For example, the
.tinrc file (?) contains a signature file option. If a directory
rather than a file is specified, tin will choose a random
file from that directory and include it after the standard
.sigfixed signature file.

I realize this isn't a practical feature, but it would be a neat
addition to Pine.

Just my 2 cents worth,

- Darryl

Yeah, neat feature!  Maybe I'll add it in my copious free time ;)

Of course, if you get ambitious, it would be pretty easy to hack it 
into the get_signature() function at the bottom of pine/reply.c and 
build your own :)
