zalgo-cli

A command line zalgo text generator.

I created this because I wanted to use a zalgo-text nickname on Discord. But the online generators that I found tended to generate text of a rediculous length if you wanted it to look good. There was also the problem of having to generate it multiple times to find one that looked good.

This program solves both of these issues. You can choose a maximum character limit, and the program will evenly distribute the combining characters across the string. You can also choose how many different strings to generate, so you can look through them and find the one that you like the most.

Sample usage

$ python zalgo.py 
Initial string: fydrenak
Character limit [0 for no limit, min 16]: 32
Amount to generate: 64
