Where have all my console apps gone?

Hey folks,

I just installed Fedora Pre-3 on my machine at home. I just noticed that some of my old favourites have been excluded in this distribution...

To name two,
1. fortune - the old classic fortune cookies.
2. ATC - an air traffic controller text-based game.

I don't know when they were removed (RH9 didn't have them either I believe) but now I can't seem to find them to download. I can find a million fortune mods but I can't find the actual.

I miss ATC and fortune. :'( Someone please post a d/l link.

Thanks.
J.

That thought had crossed my mind. In fact, I even tried it before posting here. The bad news is I can't find ATC anywhere (as per my post in the Software - Games forum) and I have only found Forune-mods in my searches with no links to the maintainer of the actual Fortune code.

If you have such a link, for either ATC or fortune, I would love to know what it is.

Thanks.
J.
