What is Zalgo Text?
**Zalgo text**, also known as "glitch text" or "cursed text," is a style of digital text that appears distorted, corrupted, or unsettling. It's achieved by excessively applying **Unicode combining characters** (diacritics) above, below, and through standard letters.
How it Works
Unlike regular characters that occupy their own space, combining characters are designed to modify the character that precedes them, stacking visually. By adding many of these marks to a single letter, the text seems to "bleed" vertically, creating the iconic Zalgo effect.
Customization
- **Chaos Level:** Controls the probability of applying combining characters to each letter. A higher level means more random distortion.
- **Max Vertical Stack Height:** Determines the maximum number of combining characters that can stack on top of or below a single letter, influencing the vertical "stretch" of the glitch.
- **Skip Spaces:** Prevents combining characters from being applied to spaces, which often improves readability and focuses the effect on actual letters.
