I use Excel to generate patterns.  

Make a column for each 
ticker, per, date, open, high, low, close, vol, o/i

IBM, D, 5/29/2005, 121,125,110,123,624589, 0 

Check the Downloader manual (mine is on page 78) for formats.

Then save the file as a Comma Separated Value myfile.csv.  The
downloader will read this type of file and convert it to the MS
internal format.

If you want to add noise,  Excel has a random number generator
function that you can add to the formula to simulate noisy prices.
