'egd' is a Python language module for obtaining random data from an EGD (entropy gathering daemon) source; primarily for use on Unix-like operating systems that do not have a /dev/random device. To install, type: python setup.py install or optionally just copy the file "egd.py" to whereever you want. See INSTALL.txt for mo detailed instructions. The module is self-documented, so within the python interpreter type: import egd help(egd) or from a command line: pydoc egd This software is released to the PUBLIC DOMAIN.
