Generate Lorem Ipsum
-
I just purchased Editorial, and have been messing around. I found the built in Lorem Ipsum Generator (as I was working on my own) and wondered why no one had converted it over to Pythonista, so I did. The only thing missing is the insert feature, because I couldn't quite figure out why it had to be in the script.
(Downloading the repo is a lot easier ;) )

There's already a Lorem Ipsum module in Python's standard library. You may not have seen it because it is called
faker
.faker
provides a lot of functionality that a simple Lorem Ipsum module doesn't in terms of code testing so I'd recommend you check it out. -
Yes. The above code imports and uses faker.

Faker isn't part of the Python standard library, it's a third-party module that is included by default in Pythonista. Just saying, in case you want to use it outside Pythonista.
