Using Spawner To Populate SQL Database

"I recently ran into the problem of not wanting to generate lots of data manually. I initially thought that I would write a shell script to do this, but figured I might as well look around first. I stumbled across a program called Spawner which is great for generating data for database testing.

"Once you've downloaded spawner from sourceforge you'll probably have to install some libraries. I had to install gtkhtml, gnome-spell2, gdk-pixbuf and glib on OpenSuse and very similar packages on Fedora 8."
