SYNOPSIS

       random

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION
       random creates  a random channel which absorbs everything written into it and uses it as a seed for a
              random number generator. This generator is used to create a  random  sequence  of  bytes  when
              reading from the channel. It is not possible to seek the channel.


OPTIONS
       Memory channels created by random provide one additional option to set or query.

       -delay ?milliseconds?
              A  random channel is always writable and readable. This means that all fileevent-handlers will
              fire continuously.  To avoid starvation of other event sources the events raised by this chan-nel channel
              nel type have a configurable delay. This option is set in milliseconds and defaults to 5.
