Thanks Nick, Steve and others who have given input on this. I just inserted an
integer and let it go at that:

srand(5);

I'll reread Nick's email later and try and improve the program. It is
sufficiently random for my purposes:

$ ./RandomPasswdGen
          
L:NdqdAdw20aOs1HwjaICzeVO9YO9DE9iutJGaQu


$ ./RandomPasswdGen
