An [Alfred 4](https://www.alfredapp.com/) workflow for generating [lorem ipsum](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorem_ipsum) dummy text using [JarryShaw/lorem](https://github.com/JarryShaw/lorem).

## Dependencies

Since macOS Monterey 12.3 no longer comes packaged with Python, you will need to install Python 3 starting with the `v3.2.0` release and have it accessible via `python3`. If you would prefer to stick with Python 2, you can utilize the `v3.1.x` release and have `python` pointed to Python 2.

To install Python 3:

1. Open Terminal (or any terminal app)
2. Run `xcode-select --install`
3. Click **Install** on the prompt that appears
4. After the download completes, click **Done**

Alternatively, you can also install Python 3 with [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/):

```sh
brew install python3
```

Note that you will need to alias this to `python3`.

You can verify that Python 3 has been installed by running `python3 --version` in Terminal. This should produce output that looks like this:

```sh
$ python3 --version
Python 3.8.9
```

## Installation

1. [Download the workflow](https://github.com/alexchantastic/alfred-lipsum-workflow/releases/latest)
