There is a program on our Sun called primes which generates prime numbers.
I've seen it around on Unix systems for years.  Does anyone out there know
the algorithm that it uses, or better yet, where I can get the source for
it?  I'd read the fine manual, but we don't seem to have one for this
program.

Thanks,
