Thanks for your email. The documentation is wrong there, I will correct it. Only the binary gsl_rng_fread and gsl_rng_fwrite functions are supported. The binary data is not portable in general, it is just a raw copy of the struct. -- Brian Gough GNU Scientific Library - http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/ _______________________________________________ Bug-gsl mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gsl
