FWIW, and not to take anything way from these other sites or from Scribus's built-in greeking generation, I have one of these too (http://ungreek.toolbot.com). Multiple source texts is its main novelty. It also has an undocumented API that makes it easy to invoke remotely, e.g. from a Python script: >>> import urllib >>> text = urllib.urlopen("http://ungreek.toolbot.com/?RAW").read() >>> print text Ajn etna lingvo estas ligita al difinita perspektivo pri la mondo. Individuo en la homara komunumo kun firmaj radikoj cxe sia loka.
