Currently, this generator is coded in C and is designed to run on UNIX systems or similar.

The set of parameters it accepts is as follows:

  • the data set (default is 'usg'), -s option.
  • the length of generated password (default is 8), -l option.
  • the number of generated passwords (default is 1), -n option.

If you want to include custom rules in this generator, you simply have to compile it with those rules.

The suggested choices are the following:

List more than one (24)

 

The first choice in the list generates passwords as previously recommended.
The other choices depend on the language chosen and show the flexibility brought by the generator.

The last listed options are as follows:

  • the command help, option --help.
  • the generator's loaded data listing, option --list-data.
  • the loaded data memory dump, option --dump-data.

You may have to launch the generator several times before getting a suitable password.
