When using the 'sortjokes' script, beware of the bug in sort (as documented in the manual: "sort silently truncates very long lines"). This means that you cannot sort jokes containing more than about a thousand characters (and several of the posted ones do) without recompiling sort with a bigger constant L. Very annoying. 2. The posted 'obscene' file is identical to the standard BSD version, except that some spelling mistakes have been corrected. The posted 'cleanjokes' is a proper subset of the standard BSD version, again some spelling mistakes were corrected. (In case that matters: We are running BSD4.2.)
