OK, then leave the plumbing, and put the reason yow.lines was truncated at the top of the file (above the NUL), and include only one quote: THIS FILE HAS BEEN TRUNCATED FOR THIS RELEASE: you are encouraged to add your own quotes. See etc/yow.lines for details and replacement format. That way, they'll still get *something*, but it's clear that it's not the original and it also will encourage other files to be inserted (perhaps a GPL fortune file or something). -- Randal L.
