Use devel_create_greeking for text field instead of user_password
>>> [!note] Migrated issue
<!-- Drupal.org comment -->
<!-- Migrated from issue #1010394. -->
Reported by: [Mac Clemmens](https://www.drupal.org/user/105574)

<p>Currently, the module generates long text for text fields like this:<br>
YYvM78jcoXCm4sHuQivbUEuvBqhJzg3bUFwKMNrWEr8p6kgB6KR3u2</p>
<p>which isn't terrible useful, because the long text can break layouts. </p>
<p>Currently, the code can be found in /includes/content.devel.inc</p>
<p>I recommend substituting this line of code within the <b>_text_content_generate()</b> function:</p>
<p><code>$node_field['value'] = user_password($field['max_length']);</code></p>
<p>With this:<br>
<code>$node_field['value'] = devel_create_greeking(mt_rand(1, $field['max_length']));</code></p>
<p>which creates a nice greek title, of some random length between 1 and the maximum length of the field.</p>
<p>Patch is attached.</p>
