It is labeled as "deprecated", but I need a function that produces precisely the same result. It really doesn't matter to me that folks have figured out how to jigger a file to produce an arbitrary sha1 sum. I only need a fairly random result from summing a few tens of bytes of text. So as long as "deprecate" doesn't mean it's going away, I'm fine. I use the code to create an unguessable password. Just because it's possible to use different source text to produce the same password doesn't matter at all. :) Cheers - Bruce
