kraut-ipsum-filler

Fetches some traditional German filler text from http://www.krautipsum.com and inserts it at the current position in the current document.

Features

Command Palette

You can use the Command Palette to execute the command Kraut einfügen to insert a paragraph of Kraut Ipsum at the current position.

Emmet style

It is also possible to just type kraut and hit ctrl + tab in the text editor to insert a paragraph of Kraut Ipsum at the current position. To insert more paragraphs at once, use kraut*3 and hit ctrl + tab. (Note: you can insert at most 5 paragraphs in one go). Currently it is not possible to use only tab as trigger, because this would break the default emmet implementation of VSCode. If you know how to fix this, I would appreciate a pull request.

Where is all the data from?

This extension gets its filler texts from the great Kraut Ipsum German Filler Text Generator at http://www.krautipsum.com.
