This is a short description on the use of the client demo,
a client that initiates and uses a random number generator
that lies on a C-server.

Instructions.

1) Modify the OTPROOT variable on the Makefile to point
   to the root for your erlang instalation.
   Modify IC and Erl_Interface versions to agree your
   OTP version.

2) 
    Type :
    ------ 

    make                                ( generates and compiles all code )

    server                              ( starts the c-server )


    To test the c-client against the c-server start a new terminal window and type :
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    client                              ( calls the server )


    To test the erlang-client against the c-server start a new terminal window and type :
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    erl -sname client -setcookie flash  ( start erlang )

    client:init(1,2,3).                 ( initiates the random generator )

    client:produce().                   ( calls the random generator )
