Martin, it is the \listid and \listtemplateid keywords, which are the ones
that started this thread in the first place.
BTW, I was convinced by the multi-threading argument that rand() is the
best way to go. How about a compromise?
UT_uint32 UT_newNumber ()
{
static UT_uint32 m_theNum = 10000;
//When this is MUTEX safe, we can do
//return m_theNum++;
m_theNum = UT_rand();
while (m_theNum<10000)
m_theNum = UT_rand();
}
