Yeah I look at that, I was actually having trouble getting the setup.rb
script to run in Windows. It's fine for me to copy it over but I was
going to use it in an article and didn't want to have to explain how to
manually install it. Then again it could just be my laptop, I'll try it
on another computer tomorrow. Also, I noticed you said you were working
on better seeding for Windows, does the current seeding effect the
randomness much?
Thanks,
Dave
