Does anyone have a Notepad++ plugin that will generate UUIDs and insert them

Question
I Often need UUIDs inserted into files that I'm editing in Notepad++. Does anyone have a macro or add in that does this. Or an autohotkey script?
Solution
Install the GhNppExec plugin from Plugin Central, then configure to run the simple Python script below.
Use the shortcut mapper to assign a key combination to the plugin command.
import uuid
import sys
# make a random UUID
sys.stdout.write(str(uuid.uuid4()).upper())
OTHER TIPS
NppToolBucket does it very nicely, too.

It's not spectacular(has its flaws), but it looks to get the job done.
