randompass
A simple static password generator. Generated passwords are 20 characters, lower and uppercase and contain special characters by default.
Why?
I got frustrated with generating passwords which met the required complexity.
There are a few implementations around, but their licensing meant they cannot be used in a professional setting.
Moreover, they require explicit flags to enable a specific complication (i.e.: special chars, uppercase); randompass has them enabled by default and the user can disable them instead.
Finally, they do not guarantee that the required complexity has been met (i.e.: the password might not contain a required complication).
Usage
