The main arguments are -l,--length=<num-of-pw-chars>
, which char categories to
include among -a
lowercase letters, -A
uppercase letters, -d
digits and -c
special chars, and -s
to split the output into a more readable form. Also use
option -f
for sites which insist that you must have at least one char of each
category. Run mkpw --help
for more information.
