Show HN: Fast, human-friendly passphrase generator written in Rust
- yarwelp_ 9y agoMain features: * Fast * Makes use of EFF wordlists which were designed to contain human-friendly words as opposed to the arcane and obscure and strange words found in e.g. /usr/share/dict/words. * Single binary with wordlists compiled into it. * It can tell you the password entropy if you'd like it to. * You can use physical dice if you like. By default it will use the OS provided CSPRNG. Installation: 1) Install Rust - https://rustup.rs/ https://rustup.rs/ 2) cargo install pgen
- solarkraft 9y agoWas a bit annoying to install with the rust toolchain from the Ubuntu/Elementary Freya repositories because the outdated compiler would fail on the bitflags package. With the toolchain installed through rustup it works well. Now I only need to become accustomed to these kinds of passwords.
