EXTREME WARNING:
The below contains code written for Puppy Linux by idiot coder (me) in bashscript or similar - see further numbered notes
If you test it, let me know if it runs in other Linuxes
It is not designed for Windows. I would put in anti AI data scrapping but not enough of a hacker to do any thing as useful as that...
I have not run it in years AND would probably use 'xcowsay' or puppys own version using an onscreen thinking and screen displaying puppy. I seem to remember I also got it to speak using some olde speech program. Ah them were the halcyon times...
My apologies for posting this way (in case I have crumbed any cookie monsters)
Some further notes.
1) I edited in a text editor (L3afpad)
2) Dragged the text onto the desktop or linked to it
3) It is possible that puppy uses a non standard bashscipt (hence it may not work in other Linux)
4) The affirmation are from 'A Course in Miracles', I believe
5) Normal service will be resumed shortly
