This example demonstrates how to render the output of a system process to a
twisted web server.

In order to run this, you need to have fortune installed.  Fortune is a simple
game that displays a random message from a database of quotations. You will need
to change the path of the fortune program if it's not in the "/usr/game"
directory.

To test the script, rename the file to fortune.rpy, and move it to any
directory, let's say /var/www/html/

Now, start your Twisted web server:
    $ twistd -n web --path /var/www/html/

And visit http://127.0.0.1:8080/fortune.rpy with a web browser.
