      1 DFortune
      2 ===========
      3 A small and somewhat primitive library to parse unix fortunecookie files.
      4 
      5 It parses the file and then provides a random access range to the cookies,
      6 which get red lazily.
      7 
      8 Encoding
      9 --------
     10 The encoding isn't considered at all. The library-user has to know in what
     11 encoding the fortunefile is saved, and handle it accordingly.
     12 
     13 
     14 Example
     15 -------
     16 The library should be fairly self-explanatory. 
     17 
     18 ```D
     19 Fortune f;
     20 f.open("/path/to/file");
     21 scope(exit)f.close();
     22 
     23 writeln(f.strings.joiner("\n"));
     24 writeln(f.range.filter!(a=>a.size>300).map!(a=>f.read(a)).joiner("\n"));
     25 ```
     26 
     27 Note that both `/path/to/file` and `/path/to/file.dat` have to exist.
