d129c68a14 Do What I Mean when the user asks for random integers or characters.
Up to now jot would fail to generate the last character in the range
or skew the integer distribution in a way that would generate the numbers
in the range's limits with half the probability of the rest.

This modification fixes the program, rather than documenting the
strange behavior, as suggested in docs/54879.

Also, correctly specify the range of random(3).

fee14f30e9 Avoid negative array indices: an empty string can also be used
to specify a default value.

a26a66124e Restore jot's ability to use a seed for producing a deterministic
sequence of random numbers.
This functionality was lost in revision 1.9 when the random number
generator was switched to arc4random.

5249bd84d6 Back out rev 1.11, about which bde had concerns, and instead implement
appropriate bounds-checking and typecasts based on our knowledge of
the desired conversion format specifier.

Simplify diagnostics and take care to print the correct conversion
format specifier when %l is involved.

8db8a33bb9 Improve printf(3) conversion specifier parsing so that silly formats
aren't allowed and the right casts can be used for printf() statements.

Document the conversion specifier limitations and the fact that
arithmetic overflow causes a fatal error.

3be5f1f5ce Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.
