package require Tcl
package require memchan
DESCRIPTION
The command described here is in the planning stages and not available yet.
- random
-
creates a random channel which absorbes 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.
Memory channels created by random provide no additional options to
set or query.
A random channel is always writable and readable. This means that all
fileevent-handlers will fire continuously.
