Wine is a way to run Windows software on Linux, but with no Windows required. Wine is an open-source Windows compatibility layer that can run Windows programs directly on any Linux desktop. Essentially, Wine is trying to re-implement enough of Windows from scratch so that it can run all those Windows applications without actually needing Windows.

Travesty
DESCRIPTION
A parody text generator. This is taken from the article published in BYTE Magazine in 1984. Literary critic Hugh Kenner and computer scientist Joseph O'Rourke introduced their text scrambler "Travesty" in an issue of BYTE magazine 1984. See the Wikipedia page for more information. The code has been mostly preserved, I've just added a GUI to make it easier to play around with the options and included a copy of Alice in Wonderland. A Windows binary is available on the releases page. Parody generators are computer programs which generate text that is syntactically correct, but usually meaningless, often in the style of a technical paper or a particular writer. They are also called travesty generators and random text generators. Their purpose is often satirical, intending to show that there is little difference between the generated text and real examples.
