On Debian packages release names

Thanks [Uwe]http://www.hermann-uwe.de/blog/debian-packages-release-names-reloaded() for your work on extracting package names. It's inspiring, and it enables other forms of inspirations to come to life:

wget -q -O- http://www.hermann-uwe.de/files/debian_packages_release_names.txt | \
  sed 's/^.\+ \* //' | dadadodo -

wget -q -O- http://www.hermann-uwe.de/files/debian_packages_release_names.txt | \
  sed 's/"//g' | sed 's/^.\+ \* //' | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]' | dadadodo -

# For ~/.bash_profile, instead of fortune
sed 's/"//g' debian_packages_release_names.txt | sed 's/^.\+ \* The //' | \
  sed 's/[Rr]elease[.!]\?$//' | bogosort -n | head -1

# Or directly create a fortune database
wget -q -O- http://www.hermann-uwe.de/files/debian_packages_release_names.txt | \
  sed 's/"//g' debian_packages_release_names.txt | sed 's/^.\+ \* The //' | \
  sed 's/[Rr]elease[.!]\?$//' | sed 's/$/\n%/' > release-names
strfile release-names
fortune release-names

Happyness.
