+==================
+`~Generator` can be used with user-provided `~BitGenerator`\ s. The simplest
way to write a new BitGenerator is to examine the pyx file of one of the
existing BitGenerators. The key structure that must be provided is the
``capsule`` which contains a ``PyCapsule`` to a struct pointer of type
