hey all -
i've just put a CGI on my server which some of you may find interesting
and/or useful. it takes the markup of a generic web page as input, and
returns a greeked page based on that markup. it's something i use at
work, when i need to slam out a few dozen sample pages quickly. it's also
useful for testing a layout with various amounts of content.

the script behind the scenes does its thing by mangling a source file which
contains normal text.. about 5000 words, in this case. the random text
follows the same patterns as appear in the source file, so the output is
almost, but not quite, meaningful.
the script lets you set the amount of text you want to have appear at any
given point, and allows you to place it anywhere on the page you like.
