.SH NAME
 lsh-make-seed \- program to generate a yarrow random seed file
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B lsh-make-seed
.RI [ options ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.B lsh-make-seed
command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
Instead, it has documentation in the GNU Info format; see below.
.PP
.\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
.\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics, 
.\" respectively.
\fBlsh-make-seed\fP is a program that creates an initial random seed file for
the yarrow pseudo-randomness-generator used by both the lsh server and client.
.SH OPTIONS
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
options starting with two dashes (`-').
A summary of options is included below.
For a complete description, see the Info files.
.TP
.B \-f, \-\-force
Overwrite any existing seed file.
.TP
.B \-o, \-\-output\-file=\fIfilename\fP
Output random seed to \fIfilename\fP. The default is to output to

.TP
.B \-\-server
Save seed file where the lsh server expects it (eg.
/var/spool/lsh/yarrow-seed-file).
.TP
.B \-\-sloppy
Generate seed file even if we can't collect a good amount of randomness from
the environment.
.TP
.B \-\-debug
Print huge amounts of debug information.
.TP
.B \-q, \-\-quiet
