# gem install zalgor

Simple transformation:

require 'zalgor'

# transform a string

str = Zalgor.purify(str)
puts str
# 'Hello World'

Simple transformation directly in String class:

require 'zalgor/string'

# String has "to_zalgo" instance method
puts 'Hello World'.to_zalgo

Transformation options:

# Zalgor.transform(string, **options)
# options can be:
# down:   Integer, the number of down combining chars
# mid:    Integer, the number of mid combining chars
# up:     Integer, the number of up combining chars
# random: Boolean, random each options (0..down|mid|up)
# default options if not specified
