I have send out an email earlier this week that sketches out changes
to the `shuf' program that would allow for random permutations with
replacement ("--with-replacement" switch).

For example:

shuf <<EOF
clubs
hearts
diamonds
spades
EOF

might output:

clubs
diamonds
spades
diamonds

Please let me know what you think of this feature. If we can add it to
`shuf', I would be happy to clean up the patch.

Thanks,
