How to configure multiples messages in motd ?

Multiple messages?

as in random ones or several lines?

I use fortune for random quotes when my users login, for several lines i have each one starting with echo

Code:

echo "text"
echo "text"
echo "text"

But that's because my shell scripting is a bit pants.
