> Or, you can crontab it and have it change automatically evey minute.

the solution that I know someone does, is write a small C program to take
quotes from a database of some variety (dunno if it's 'fortune', or his own
file); format them to fit in his .sig file, and then stuff the output into a
named pipe.

when the mailer/whatever reads from the pipe, emptying it, the C program
(still sleeping in the background) wakes up and stuffs something new in the
pipe.
