Did you notice the fields I defined?

I didn't, sorry. The extra methods would still be useful though. Most people
discover the capabilities of a class by looking at the auto-completion
suggestions from the IDE. In this case the {{withDigits()}} method would pop-up
immediately and look as a more obvious choice than {{filteredBy()}}.

Nothing prevents a custom filter from saving the characters seen so far

Good point, the interface is good as-is then (well, until we use a parallel
string generation method ;) )

> Add class to generate random strings
> ------------------------------------

> Key: TEXT-34
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEXT-34
> Project: Commons Text
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Duncan Jones
> Assignee: Duncan Jones
>
> The {{RandomStringUtils}} class will be deprecated in Commons Lang and reborn
> in Commons Text.
> Because the original class has some complicated parameters and potentially
> unnecessary capabilities, I'll simplify as I move it across. I'll also ensure
> the class plays nicely with Unicode characters.
