The script simply takes the
name of a directory and
returns a random file from
within that directory. An
example of its use is
provided by means of script
to play the game
Scissors/Paper/Stone. For a
live use of this
application, the author uses
it to simply manage links
from his site, it's quick
and easy to add, amend and
delete the html link
code into files in
several directories, and
keep thus the links separate
from the html formatting of
the page. Once a random
filename has been selected,
the uses of it are vast, as
in the example the contents
of the file can be displayed
or parsed, or for an image
file the contents could be
displayed via an IMG tag.
