An extension for Sublime Text 2 and 3!
It allows you to Insert Lorem Ipsum in the editor via menu items or keyboard shortcut.
Select how much text you want from the menu item in Edit->Text->Lorem Ipsum or on the right click menu in Lorem Ipsum.
Just press the shortcut key (Alt+Shift+L) to add Lorem Ipsum text. Keep pressing to add more.
Alternatively, you can also specify the number of paragraphs, by writing a number, and pressing the shortcut key. Lorem Ipsum will check if there is a number directly preceding the selection range, and replace it with that many paragraphs of lorem ipsum. Addind a decimal point, defines the approximate number of words per paragraph.
Generate a dummy title for a blog, and a few paragraphs
- Press the shortcut once, to generate a single line of lorem upsum, of about 15 words
- Uses only words from the original Lorem ipsum text
- Randomly generates text from selection of words
- Often starts with
Lorem ipsum - Leaves the inserted text un-selected, so you can insert some more straight away (rapid tapping to get as much lorem as you want)
- Shortcut key,
Edit -> Text -> Lorem Ipsum...sub-menu, and context menu activation - Variable size of text from just
a bitto more than you can shake a stick at! - Works with multiple selection ranges
- Does not leave trailing spaces
The easiest way to install this is with Package Control.
- If you just went and installed Package Control, you probably need to restart Sublime Text before doing this next bit.
- Bring up the Command Palette (Command+Shift+P on OS X, Control+Shift+P on Linux/Windows).
- Select "Package Control: Install Package" (it'll take a few seconds)
- Select LoremIpsum when the list appears.
Package Control will automatically keep Git up to date with the latest version.
