Replace word with random

Hey there,

I would like to replace one word from a randomly selected list of words. like this:

Simple Word
Simple Word
Simple Word
Simple Word

Lets say I want to replace Simple with either {Complicated, Stupid, Redundant, Silly, Smart}. I would get something like this:

Silly Word
Smart Word
Redundant Word
Smart Word

I don't care if it repeats without going through the whole list or anything, I plan on using a great deal of variables.

Thanks for the help!

This is a job for a script in your favourite scripting language. Unfortunately, TextPad doesn't support scripts in any language. Maybe one day...
