Teds Tremendous Data Generator - v1.0.0
Teds Tremendous Data Generator is quite simply a free, open source, fast and easy-to-use arbitrary data generation tool. The interface is deliberately simple and comes as a tabbed system to enable generation of both text data, or files data of either the same or random nature.
The utility came about to help with the development of QuickHash-GUI. With version 3.0.0 of that tool, I frequently needed to have sample data to test out many of the newer features. Manually creating files quickly became frustrating, so ‘Teds Tremendous Data Generator’ was born to address the need. And having created it, it seemed daft to not allow others to benefit from it.
Currently only for Windows but I've obviously coded it for cross-compilation, so its easy for me to generate a Linux or OSX version if anyone wants it.

Many thanks for this tool which saved me writing my own. Analysis of the contents of the random files created shows that they never contain the value 0xff. I suspect this may not be by design!
Thanks for creating this Utility. Going to use it as an alternative to zeroing out Disks on a Backup Device before I get rid of it just to help protect any personal data I had on there. I figure several overwrites with random data should make it safe enough to let the device leave my hands. But I do have one question. Is there a way to automate this Utility (Ted’s Tremendous Data Generator) from the command line? I’d like to put a Job in Task Scheduler and have it kick off to generate about a TB of random data each day before the Backup window starts. That way, I’m definitely overwriting the Disks in the Backup Device with new Random Data each night for several days before I wipe its config and turn it off for good. Please let me know.
