History
Sebastian Wilhelmi 32241715f4 Updated G_RAND_DOUBLE_TRANSFORM to be more accurate. Redid g_rand_double() 
2000-12-19  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* grand.c: Updated G_RAND_DOUBLE_TRANSFORM to be more
	accurate. Redid g_rand_double() such that it returns 52 bits after
	the point instead of 32 as before. That OTOH requires calling
	g_rand_int() twice. Overhauled g_rand_int_range(), which is easier
	now thanks to the new precision of g_rand_double(). Thanks to
	Sverre Johansen <sj@ifi.uio.no> for the hint.

	* grand.h: Added g_rand_boolean() and g_random_boolean()
	macros. While they could be omitted due to extreme simplicity,
	they make intention clearer in code and are therefore good to have.

	* grand.c, grand.h: Renamed all 'min' and 'max' parameters to'
	begin' and 'end' resp. to avoid making people think, that 'max' is
	included in the interval. 'end' now isn't, whereas 'begin'
	is. That's similar to the use in the STL.

	* glib/glib-sections.txt: Added g_rand_boolean and
	g_random_boolean macros.

	* glib/tmpl/random_numbers.sgml: Updated.

README 

This package contains the reference documentation
for GLib. For more information about Glib,
see:

 http://www.gtk.org

For information about contributing to the
GLib/GTK+ reference documentation project, see:

 http://www.gtk.org/rdp/

The GLib reference documentation is freely redistributable,
see the file COPYING for details.


REQUIREMENTS
============

To build the documentation, you must have the gtk-doc
package installed. To rebuild the template files,
you must have the current version of the GLib
header files installed.


BUILD
=====

First, run configure to generate the makefiles for this
module. There is one option specific to this package

  --with-html-dir=DIR   top of installed HTML documentation tree


The Makefiles for this module define three targets:

 templates:
  
  Scan the headers and merge the results with the current 
  template files

 sgml:

  Generate SGML files using the DocBook DTD from
  the template files

 html:

  Generate HTML from the SGML files.

To build the documentation, do:

 make sgml
 make html

You should only run the 'make templates' step if you
need to regenerate the templates for a more recent
version of the GLib sources.


INSTALLATION
============

 make install
