Yes. I use a random zsig script, (the file is .z aliased as z). This is an
older version that supports only one-line zsigs.
However, I got the same error when I simply typed zwrite foo, but this gave
me the fault before I even sent the message, and it didn't let me send
anything.

Scientists will (I am sure) be surprised and delighted that quite a

ramified, seaweedy, strange, tangled, torturous, wiggly, wispy, wrinkled,

quantitative fashion.
