yup, me too - add this to your .bashrc profile:
Code:
genpasswd() {
local l=$1
[ "$l" == "" ] && l=20
tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 < /dev/urandom | head -c ${l} | xargs
}
then call it on the command line with:
genpasswd
or
genpasswd 8
(for 8char passwords etc)
my passwd for my bank as of today is aeXsKpHjnEOyeEcUGgWc
Njoy
