README.md

To install

./install.sh

Also make sure /usr/games/fortune exists (for example, on Ubuntu nowadays you run sudo apt install fortune-mod in order to install it).

To run

/PATH/TO/makefortune.sh would generate /PATH/TO/fortune.rss.

Tip: do this as a cron job, and make /PATH/TO/ accessible by web.
