* maybe add optimization using seek() in file
* maybe add smarter memory management allocating the buffers only once
* work out if the arithmetic holds for large values
* automatically (configure) select the best way to seed the random number
generator
* add error checking of streams using ferror()
* maybe implement linked list construction for arrays that might grow fast and
need a lot of realloc()'s
* implement sanity checks for testing program
* implement internationalisation with GNU gettext
* try using temporary files with pointer into files
* add options:
--dbm use Berkeley DB for operation instead of using memory. This is useful
when FILE is too large to fit into memory. Little cpu/memory usage
but much slower
-s, --skip-blank skip blank lines
* move sources to src directory
* experiment with different random number generators
* find out for which file sizes the random numbers produce accurate
results (this really needs some work since some systems (HP-UX and
Solaris) have a very low RAND_MAX)
* add a test suite
* split on words (split on regexp)
