Subject: RNG initialization
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.10.10001171659110.17501-100000@bolker.zoo.ufl.edu>


  It would be nice to be able to initialize the random-number generator
with a single long argument; I can see that in principle this could be
done by writing an access method, do_RNGinit (or whatever) for RNG_Init.
I had trouble with the technical details, possibly because of long/int
incompatibilities.

  Any chance of this happening?
