The -o option is ignored if aPlease, please, please request a potentially offensive fortune if and only if you believe, deep in your heart, that you are willing to be offended. BeCareful! If you set the length too short and ask for short fortunes, or too longAnd ask for long ones, fortune goes into a never-ending thrash loop.-o Choose only from potentially offensive aphorisms. All fortunes longer than this are considered ``long''. This can be useful if you wish to remove the gatheredMatches from their original files, since each filename-record will precede theSet the longest fortune length (in characters) considered to be ``short'' (theDefault is 160).

This has not been a complete success. This leaves the data intact, should the file later beWanted, but since fortune no longer finds the pointers file, it ignores the text file.The supplied fortune databases have been attacked, in order to correct orthographical andGrammatical errors, and particularly to reduce redundancy and repetition and redundancy.But especially to avoid repetitiousness. The commandWill pick out 90% of its fortunes from funny (the ``10% not-funny'' is unnecessary, sinceThe -e option says to consider all files equal thusNote: these are the defaults as defined at compile time.If a particular set of fortunes is particularly unwanted, there is an easy solution:Delete the associated. If the percentagesDo not sum to 100, and there are specifications without percentages, the remaining percentWill apply to those files and/or directories, in which case the probability of selectingFrom one of them will be based on their relative sizes.As an example, given two databases funny and not-funny, with funny twice as big (in numberWill get you fortunes out of funny two-thirds of the time.

Not all the potentially offensiveFortunes are in the offensive fortunes files, nor are all the fortunes in the offensiveFiles potentially offensive, probably, though a strong attempt has been made to achieveGreater consistency.
