Research direction

Start by locating the command-line option handling, the public API, and every use of Python's random functionality. Trace how random file structures are generated, then route all randomness through a Random object while exposing a seed through both interfaces. Done means callers can reproduce the same generated structure by fixing the seed.

Description

good first issue hacktoberfest

User should be able to fix random seed with command line option and simple API call. This also means that all randomness should come from a Random object rather than directly the random method.
