     NAME
          fortune, theo, troll - sample lines from a file

     SYNOPSIS
          fortune [ file ]
          theo
          troll

     DESCRIPTION
          Fortune prints a one-line aphorism chosen at random.  If a
          file is specified, the saying is taken from that file; oth-
          erwise it is selected from /sys/games/lib/fortunes.

          Troll is more specific than fortune; it specializes in
          inflammatory rhetoric.

          Theo is more specific than troll; it presents insults from
          OpenBSD founder Theo de Raadt.
