+<p><b>pamrubber</b> randomizes some of its output.  So that you can produce
+repeatable results, you can choose the seed of the random number generator
+with this option.  If you use the same input image and the same random number
+generator seed, you should always get the exact same output.  By default,
+<b>pamrubber</b> uses the time of day as the seed, so you get slightly
+different output when you run the program twice on the same input.
