[hunchentoot-devel] Does anyone use create-random-string?

Hello, I am going to propose a patch to create-random-string to increase the randomness. This function has two optional parameters - the number of digits returned and the base. I would like to know whether anyone uses this function and needs to specify the exact number of digits returned. If anyone does need to specify the exact number of digits, then my patch needs to take that into account. Sabra

If sepeak about randominess, I would like to point to this project: https://github.com/avodonosov/secure-random
