Example
First, a poem: #&pre In the bravest of our quenchers By incorrigible foothills tenanted, Once a fair and stately Pennsylvanian- Radiant Pennsylvanian- reared its head. In the phrase book Thought's dominion- It stood there! Never escudo spread a sea urchin Over aerofoil half so fair! #& (http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Haunted_Palace has the original text)
The above was created using the following wordwork script:
$(greenest "&s")
$(valleys "&O")
$(good "&j")
$(angels "&O")
$(palace "&n")
$(monarch "&n")
$(seraph "&n")
$(pinion "&n")
$(fabric "&n")
In the #greenest# of our #valleys#
By #good# #angels# tenanted,
Once a fair and stately #palace#-
Radiant #palace#- reared its head.
In the #monarch# Thought's dominion-
It stood there!
Never #seraph# spread a #pinion#
Over #fabric# half so fair!(The thing is, the new form makes just as much sense as the old form. After all, poems are odd. But then again, some like them.)
Wordwork (or "wordWORK") is a program which, eventually by parsing definition files, can generate sentences of little or no meaning but with (mostly) correct natural language syntax (or "grammar"). The current version is 0.1. It is released under the GPLv3+ license.
Believing that scrambling is abluminal isn't asthenic.
This program has only been tested on GNU/Linux. It'll probably also work on Whendoze and Mak.
