Word Salad Description

A very simple Ruby library for generating random strings of English words based on the Unix dictionary file Word Salad does its best to figure out where your particular dictionary file is, but on some systems may need a little help.Generating random data is helpful for all kinds of testing. You could just generate random gobble-dee-gook, but why not generate something that looks a bit English-like? If for no other reason, you'll find great enjoyment in all of the potential band-names that this gem generates.WordSalad will rely on the presence of a valid Unix dictionary file. It will do its best to figure out where one is, but doesn't account for every platform.If you are one of those special people that has a dictionary file in a place WordSalad can't find, you can tell it by implementing a dictionary_path method which returns a string path pointing to the dictionary file you would like to use.
