NAME

       tart-custom - Template format for LinuxTaRT

DESCRIPTION

       LinuxTaRT  can  use  a user defined template file to generate the signature.  The name and
       location of this file can be  specified  in  ~/.tartrc,  but  defaults  to  the  following
       location:

       ~/.tart-custom

PARAMETERS

       LinuxTaRT  recognizes  the following directives in the template and replaces them with the
       corresponding values:

       %c1 - CustomText1 from .tartrc

       %c2 - CustomText2 from .tartrc

       %tg - tagline
              Randomly selected from the tagline database.

       %hr - horizontal line

       %dt - todays date
              In the format: Monday, February 25, 2002

       %12 - current hour
              12-hour format

       %24 - current hour
              24-hour format

       %mn - current minutes

       %ap - AM / PM

       %ut - system uptime
              For RiscOS or systems with the sysinfo function.

       %ib - time in ibeats

       %vi - LinuxTaRT version string

       %% - the percent symbol (%)

       Any other characters in the template are copied to the signature as is.

EXAMPLES

       The following template:

       LinuxTaRT - The Automatic Random Tagline
       %hr
       /dev/random says:
