The workflow currently relies on Python 3 which is not included with MacOS out of the box.

This can be fixed by running the following command in Terminal:

xcode-select --install

macOS will likely not ship with any scripting runtimes in the future (Perl, Ruby, etc.). I would like to future proof against this by refactoring to a pure shell or Apple Script based script.

Thanks for this easily used and useful workflow, how about support more language? eg, Chinese, Japanese, Russian

Hi Alex -

Appreciate you putting this workflow together. I used it almost daily. Wondering if you've tested this workaround for Python being removed from Monterey. I can't seem to get this to work. Wondering if you have a workaround or know of a fix.

example...

Hi there 👋

I switched to MacOS Monterey (12.0.1) a few days ago and I realised that this update to broke my lipsum workflow... 🤔

Here you can see my logs from Alfred (4.6) ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️

Did this issue happen to someone else?

Hi,
Newbie question and apologize for my english. I get an "incorrect options provided" when using last lipsum workflow .

My configuration :

• Mac os 12.3 Monterey
• Lipsum-shell installed in my user directory and running well (see screenshot)
  
• Alfred 4.6.3 with Power pack running

Lipsum workflow running, but i'm getting "incorrect options provided"

Thanks in advance !

What are the chances of generating lorem ipsum by characters? Sometimes I need to limit a text field by characters and just want to see how long 280 characters is for example.

Hi, I'm new to github so excuse me if I'm in the wrong area to get this support. I recently moved to a new Macbook and migrated the Alfred workflow manually through export and import. The Lorem Ipsum workflow doesn't work. At first there were some errors like "python: command not found". When googling I saw possible issues with PHP not working perfectly on new MacOS installations. I first downloaded the newest version (4.0.2) and got another error message:

[11:20:36.299] Lorem Ipsum[Keyword] Processing complete
[11:20:36.302] Lorem Ipsum[Keyword] Passing output '5' to Run Script
[11:20:36.319] ERROR: Lorem Ipsum[Run Script] sh: lipsum.sh: No such file or directory
[11:20:36.325] Lorem Ipsum[Run Script] Processing complete
[11:20:36.325] Lorem Ipsum[Run Script] Passing output '' to Copy to Clipboard

I assume I did something wrong somewhere, so I deleted the script and installed the new version again, restarted Alfred, but I get the same message in the debug log. Any idea what is wrong?

Hello!
As this workflow was not working any more, i took a look at it and found out that the URL in the PHP files has to be changed from
http://lipsum.com/feed/json
to
https://lipsum.com/feed/json

Kind regards,
Chris

For some reason when I try to specify a number in the "Lorem Words" search query, it forwards me to the Google search (look at the video attached).

Traditionally lorem ipsum text begins with "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..." It would be nice to at least have the option for the generated text begin with this sequence. I don't know what's possible, but either as a workflow configuration option or on a per use basis (this might get syntactically awkward.)
