Lipsum

Use this package if you want to add dummy Lorem Ipsum text to your page.

You can add a sentence, paragraph, or series of paragraphs to the page. For HTML pages you can wrap the paragraphs in HTML <p> tags.

For anyone familiar with the existing Lorem Ipsum package you will notice a lot of similarities. Unfortunately that one doesn't work with Atom >= 1.0, and that's why this now exists. I had already completed a lot of the work before I realised that existed which is why it's not a straight fork of that package.

Install

You can install it from the package manager. Just search for "lipsum".

Or you can install it using APM.

apm install lipsum

How to use

To use this, load the command panel, type "Lipsum" and choose the relevant option. Alternatively you can right click and choose "Lipsum", or choose "Lipsum" from the Packages menu.

HTML Extensions

You can also specify a list of file extensions where any paragraphs generated will be wrapped in HTML <p> </p> tags. This option is a list of file extensions for HTML file types.

The default values are:

• .html
• .htm (does anyone still use this?)
• .php (I'm not sure whether this should be included here or not, but you can override it if you want to)
• .twig (Twig templates)
• .tpl (Smarty templates)

When adding others, these should be added in lowercase, and remember to include the opening '.'
