I don't know if it's what I think; and what I think is that '.dat' files contain somewhat info about the size of fortunes, don't they? So when I iconv the text to Unicode, it obviously changes that size.. I have to recode, 'cause otherwise I get only ????? instead of a fortune. But now I like get half a fortune only.. )))) sincerely yours, appreciating your work. Is there a clue for me?
