|

|
+ ```
|

### Choosing a list

You'll find the following entry near the bottom of the script:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
- list_name = list_you_want_to_use
|
|
|
+ list_name = futurama
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Be sure to change list_name = list_you_want_to_use to the name of the list you'd like to use. Do not enclose the name in quotes.
|
|
|
+As it sits, it is configured to use the list of futurama names. Change ```futurama``` to the name of the list you'd like to use.
|
|
|
+* Must match the list name exactly
|
|
|
+* Do **not** enclose it in quotes.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+There are three pre-populated lists.
|
|
|
+* looneytunes contains a list of characters from the old (relaly old now) "Looney Tunes" cartoons.
|
|
|
+* lego_city_undercover contains a list of characters from the game "Lego City Undercover".
|
|
|
+* futurama contains a list of characters from the show "Futurama".

+The part after the = sign is the actual list. Make sure each of the names are enclosed in double quotes, with a comma and then a space between names. The last name in the list does not require a trailing comma or space. Enclose the whole list of names in standard brackets, as demonstrated in the above example.
