Hello fellow human beings,

I'm writing a game with allegro and djgpp and it requires a random
number generator that can have it's seed saved and changed. Until
now I have been using the rand() and srand() functions but I need
to be able to store the state of the random number generator.
Anyone know if there are any decent RNGs for djgpp/allegro?

BTW allegro is *amazing*. I have been looking for something like
it since I moved from Atari ST to IBM PC.
