21 ; Steve Strassmann (straz@media-lab.media.mit.edu) didn't write | |
22 ; this, and even if he did, he really didn't mean for you to use it | |
23 ; in an anarchistic way. | |
24 ; May 1987 | |
25 | |
26 ; To use this: | |
27 ; Make sure you have the variable SPOOK-PHRASES-FILE pointing to | |
28 ; a valid phrase file. Phrase files are in the same format as | |
29 ; zippy's yow.lines (ITS-style LINS format). | |
30 ; Strings are terminated by ascii 0 characters. Leading whitespace ignored. | |
31 ; Everything up to the first \000 is a comment. | |
32 ; | |
33 ; Just before sending mail, do M-x spook. | |
34 ; A number of phrases will be inserted into your buffer, to help | |
35 ; give your message that extra bit of attractiveness for automated | |
36 ; keyword scanners. | |
