pwm

pwm very simply generates reasonably secure passwords. That's it; that's all it does.

Passwords are chosen from the set of all upper-case letters except I and O, all lower-case letters except l, and the digits 2 through 9. 0 and O are not used to avoid confusion with each other. I, l, and 1 are not used for the same reason.

Usage

require 'pwm'
Pwm.password(length)

The default length is 16.

You can also call pwm from the command line:

$ pwm # default 16 character password
$ pwm 12 # some other length
