Hey,
Thanks for your reply. I know the script has some things in it which should be removed or changed, but I first would like to make it run fine. Once achieved, I will do a cleanup action. Thanks for the comments.
Also it was indeed not necessary to place the script within this post, but I thought it would be handy to help me out.
I think I can use your script very well, I`m going to test it right away!

tart-custom(5) LinuxTaRT template format tart-custom(5)
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:
%tg
http://mycompany.com
%hr
Generates the following signature:
LinuxTaRT - The Automatic Random Tagline
