'''''This page is about the [Tcllib] package. For a general discussion of the concept see [GUID and UUID].'''''

The `uuid` package provides a generator of universally unique identifiers (UUID) also known as globally unique identifiers (GUID).

[PYK] 2016-01-29:  Warning:  This implementation uses `[info hostname]`, or
`exec ipconfig` on [Microsoft Windows%|%Windows].  I was once offline and a
program of mine was hanging.  This package turned out to be the culprit.
