-
-@command{krandom} is a tunable userspace pseudorandom number generator
-based on the Keccak hash-algorithm.
-
-With @command{krandom} default parameters it is about twice as fast
-as Linux's @file{/dev/urandom}, but it's performance can be tuned
-both up and down.
-
-@command{krandom} creates a Keccak sponge and initialises its state
-@footnote{(25 @command{int_fast64_t}:s)} with random data from
-@file{/dev/urandom}. This simulate it absorption phase of Keccak
-from a random message. It then performance the squeezing phase
-continuously until the standard output pipe breaks, that is,
-when the program it pipes into exits or closes standard input.
-
-On a more technical level, @command{krandom} will pause automatically
-if the other program does not read its input, and resume when it does.
-This is because the pipe will become full and block writting for
-@command{krandom}.
