Re: OT: Passphrase generator



I just fixed a bug in frase, and added a feature. Bug: minimum passphrase length was not being
enforced -- fixed. Feature: A new, optional, second command-line argument is supported: minimum
passphrase length. In short, you now have the option to specify both a maximum and a minimum
passphrase length on the command line. (Before, the minimum was a fixed 20 characters, although it
wasn't properly enforced.) This opens the possibility of exploiting some of the longer passphrases
supported by the database (although you may get fewer than 15, even zero for some combinations of
max and min). For example, "frase 60 35" yields:

shooting_preserve.2868.Hepaticoduodenostomy
Anthropogeography.8404.Pediculus_corporis
old-man-of-the-woods.2169.Transcendentality

I've updated both the original (big-database) versions and the source-code (smaller-database)
versions. Here are the download links:
