Can Textpipe randomly add text?

Hello again,

Sorry to ask another question so soon but... I've been trying to figure out how to sprinkle hyperlinks throughout some article files I have, but haven't been able to do it.

If I have a list of urls that I want sprinkled randomly throughout a file, or files, can that be done with Textpipe?

Thank you,
ed

Hi Ed,

Yes - you can use a Scripting filter inside a pattern match designed to match either every character or perhaps groups of 100 characters, a randomizer to decide how often to insert, and either an embedded list to iterate through, or code to load the list from a file. There are samples in the Scripting folder - and we have attached a new filter for you.
