I'm releasing Generators even though they're not quite finished
There's not much more to say, really. Right now, the only syntax that's allowed (and works!) is the table id syntax: {{id}}. More features are planned, but I'm also sick and tired of this application so...
Here's an example of a generator (and also an excuse for me to try it out on my own application!). It looks like this:
{{11}} and {{10}} {{9}}, from {{3}}.
{{11}} is a table of male names from, ca, 13th century London. {{10}} is likewise, but female names. {{9}} is a huge (~1.8k) list of surnames, also somewhat accurate to the 13th century. {{3}} is a list of wards in London, again taken from historical sources.
And here's the embedded object, with 5 entries just to show that it works:
And I think that's pretty neat, tbh. There's a lot of work to be done, still, but it's something that can be used now, immediately. And there's some value in that, too.
I've also added error tracking. I hope that I'll catch anything before the server burns to the ground. I don't think it will, but you never know.
