TableSmith and Pen & Paper Gaming

As someone who used to have enough free time to laboriously roll up and create cities worth of content, I submit my newfound favorite software, TableSmith.

This is a terrific software set for randomly generating anything you could possibly want. There are already several content-packed tables created and available free of charge that can be used to create anything from humorous Kung-Fu Fighting Techniques, to Entire cities (including inhabitants, shops, shop inventories, pricing, economies, etc.).

The ability to create your own custom tables is built in to the system, and the "scripting language" is one of the easiest to understand I've seen. Bruce A. Gulke has done a wonderful job, and I hope many people visit his website and pay him money for his free software. He deserves it.
