What is the square root of twenty three ?? :)

Well I have not found any realy great ideas for this problem, I have had a 
few solutions, At the moment I am choosing the .sig manually (^R to
attach a text file in the pine mailer) I had a script changing the .sig
every time I ran pine, however I was sending multiple mail messages from
one session of pine, and it was just not good enough. I am going to try
having a backgroung process changing the .sig every minute or so, But I 
will have to see how it goes in terms of slowing down the computer. 

Thanks to all the people that replied.
