@Woozysafe i like the idea of using the I Ching but James Legge has a less than stellar reputation with me. I hope we can find an alternative translation. Would you be willing to look into it for me?
I have written permission to use Charles Muller’s translation of the Tao Te Ching for our fortune(1) implementation: http://www.acmuller.net/con-dao/daodejing.html

Another concern that has been brought up a number of times is that some fonts do not print the ASCII field separator character; however, I see this as an issue with the fonts and not an issue for…
