PakaPaka 1.1

PakaPaka is a gibberish generator: can create for you text of any length in fluent gibberish.

PakaPaka is perfect if you ever need to generate absolute nonesense in German, Hebrew, bla-bla, Greek or the good-old lorem ipsum dolor.

You can use PakaPaka go generate the traditional "lorem ipsum" placeholder text - in Latin, Greek, Hebrew or hindi. But you can also have fun with it, by creating "dummy text" modules of your own - which can be as dumb or as smart as you want them to be. The text can even make sense... almost.

NOTE: PakaPaka 1.1 can only be downloaded via the Mac App Store (the download link redirects you to its App Store page). To purchase/download applications via the App Store an Apple account is required.

To access the previous PakaPaka versions you can go to its developer's project page HERE. The page provides access to the PakaPaka 1.0 Beta 7 version.

Here are some key features of "PakaPaka":

· Generate "lorem ipsum" like text of any length
· Build your own modules, in any language, with texts that making as much or as little sense as you want.
· Create "parody" modules, mimicking any heavily jargon-ed text (Lawyerish, Postmodernistique, OMGdish, and so on).
· Image well: you can drag an image into the image well. To fit perfectly, the image needs to be 679 pixels wide and 123 pixels high. Image with a different size will be centred and will look rather tatty.
· Capitalization: You can cause Mellel to capitalise words, sentences or not at all.
· Categories: are lists of words (you can have several within each item). The words in a category are listed under the Elements in Category list (we’ll explain the logic of this in a minute). There are buttons to add or delete a category.
· Elements in Category: Every category can contain numerous elements (it can contain none, but that would not be very useful). Every element can be either masculine or feminine or undefined, as in many languages nouns have gender, and so it follows that you need go ‘genderise’ your elements to create sensible sentences. There are buttons to add or delete a category, and you can even import elements. The last is useful to create long lists of elements from a text file. The text file must use the following format: .
· Sentences: A sentence is composed of a sequence of element categories.
· The elements are listed under the Sentence structure list. To every sentence you create, you need to assign a Sentence type, and you can add or delete sentences.
· Sentence Structure: contains the sequence of element categories. You can add categories by dragging them from the categories list. You can duplicate existing categories in the list, and delete categories from the list.
· Sentence Type: You can assign a position to a sentence: It can come at the beginning of a paragraph, at its end, or in between (middle).
· Save Module: you can save changes made to the module, or save it under
· a different name. The modules are saved into ~/Application support/PakaPaka Studio.
