Phrase files are in the same format as ; zippy's yow.lines (ITS-style LINS format). ; Strings are terminated by ascii 0 characters. Leading whitespace ignored. ; Everything up to the first \000 is a comment. ; ; Just before sending mail, do M-x spook. ; A number of phrases will be inserted into your buffer, to help ; give your message that extra bit of attractiveness for automated ; keyword scanners. ;;; Code: ; Variables (defvar spook-phrases-file (concat data-directory "spook.lines") "Keep your favorite phrases here.")
