rand-1.7

Outputs a file or input string into random order

What to do with this? Well, you can queue up programs in a random order... Someone was complaining about mpg123 not having a 'shuffle' command (which it does), this could provide that. A teacher writing a test could use this to generate tests that have the same questions but in different order... Etc etc etc. One interesting use was a sysadmin using this to scramble 'script kiddies' exploit sources. While not completely ethical, it's terribly amusing :)
