TripPhrase

This gem is heavily inspired and was set in motion by Bret Victor's article tripphrases.

While the implementation may not be a one-to-one port of the original Perl program, the actual idea and motivation behind the gem is best described in Bret Victor's own words.

You know the drill:

gem install trip_phrase

Just give it a password (and optionally a custom salt):

$ trip_phrase
Usage: trip_phrase password [salt]

$ trip_phrase secret1234
sparge my extensible whaleboat

Kudos go out to Bret Victor, who happens to be working on some cool stuff you should check out.

High fives go out to WordNet, the people who distribute the lexical database used in this gem and make it ridiculously easy to play with the English language. :)
