I don't think generating random numbers is all that much of a priority. The Blum-Blum-Shub C code is available, and I defy anyone to break _that_ PRNG!
Where is this code available? Pointers anyone?

Look for blum-blum-shub-strong-randgen.shar and related files in pub/crypt/other at ripem.msu.edu. (This site is chock-full of good stuff.) Of course, only Americans are allowed to use these random number generators, and even they face fines of $500,000 and imprisonment for up to 5 years for inappopriate use of random numbers. --Tim May -- ..........................................................................
