JFortune 0.6 is out

JFortune is a JAVA Port of the famous BSD game fortune.
It is written in JAVA in an aim to make this great utility platform independent. It aims to mimic fortune as much as possible and maybe implement more fun features. Check out the homepage at http://jfortune.sourceforge.net.
The latest release (version 0.6) adds more options to jfortune. It also cleans up on the way jfortune handles the various options parsed on the command line by now using ArrayLists.
The source packages released contain build files for compiling jfortune with ANT.
You can check the project homepage at http://sourceforge.net/projects/jfortune , see a list of released files at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=117331, read the changelog at http://jfortune.sourceforge.net/clog.php#0.6 and see the project homepage at http://jfortune.sourceforge.net.
Enjoy

Fortune Cookie files added!!

I have added a couple of fortuen cookie files which can be used with jfortune. they will also give u an example as to how to make fortune cookie files recognisable by jfortune.
jfortune is a JAVA port of the famous BSD game fortune. IT is still in development stage so it is not as comprehensive or feature rich as the original program but in time it should become so.
checkout the project page at:
http://sf.net/projects/jfortune or the home page at:
http://jfortune.sf.net
and download files from:
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=117331
