%D
%D This module load Donald Arseneau's generic file
%D \type{random.tex}. A small shell is needed because we
%D redefine some \TEX\ primitives. We also use different names
%D for the two generators and add an extra one.
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \getrandomcount \countregister {minimum} {maximum}
%D \getrandomdimen \dimenregister {minimum} {maximum}
%D \getrandomnumber \macroname {minimum} {maximum}
%D \getrandomfloat \macroname {minimum} {maximum}
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D Of course the file \type{random.tex} needs to be present.
%D To prevent name clashes, the \CONTEXT\ distribution
%D contains a copy in \type {thrd-ran.tex}.
%D
%D The randomseed can be set by:
%D
%D \starttyping
%d \setrandomseed{number>0}
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D and get by:
