=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dicepwgen generates a diceware password using a dictionary
|
|
|
|
|
file. By default it uses pseudo random dice tosses, but
|
|
|
|
|
it is also possible to use real dices and enter the numbers
|
2015-08-02 15:22:29 +02:00
|
|
|
by using the option B<-t>, which is the most secure way
|
|
|
|
|
to generate diceware passwords.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The option B<-c> can be used to tweak the number of words
|
|
|
|
|
to output. The options B<-l> and B<-m> can be used to tweak
|
|
|
|
|
minimum and maximum word length.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can tell dicepwgen to use another dictionary file with
|
|
|
|
|
the option B<-f>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The program only uses words which contain 7bit ASCII letters
|
|
|
|
|
(a-zA-Z), which are easier for password usage anyway.
