       When called without any arguments, stdin is read in core entirely.

       The GNU coreutils utility shuf(1) implements the same functionality in a better way, you're probably
       better off using that.

       This script is in the public domain.

       When called with arguments, dr_permutate returns its arguments in randomly permutated order, space
       separated.  When called without any arguments, dr_permuate expects a line-oriented file on stdin.  It
       returns the contents of this file, with lines randomly permutated.

       Running

        $ dr_permutate foo bar baz

       could return

        bar foo baz

       .  Running

        $ cat <<EOF | dr_permutate
        foo
        bar
        baz

       could return

        bar
        foo
        baz

       .
