Hello,<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
first of all: Really nice project!<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
I very often encounter the problem that services do not allow all
symbols used by pass/pwgen.<br class="gmail_msg">
"Your password has to contain at least one of the following symbols
'*#_!'" (e.g. '<' is forbidden)<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
This does hinder my work-flow as I have to manually adapt the
password to match the criteria.<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
Straight-forward solution to this problem would be to provide the
symbol set via optional command line argument to the generate
command.<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
Example: pass generate <b class="gmail_msg">-s "*#_!"</b> path/to/password 20<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
I already checked man page and source code of pwgen. Unfortunately
this feature is not provided out of the box.<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
I see multiple possible solutions to this:<br class="gmail_msg">
- Exchange pwgen with apg (possibly massive side-effects)<br class="gmail_msg">
- Extend pwgen<br class="gmail_msg">
- Let pass itself convert unwanted symbols generated by pwgen
(hacky)<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
What do you think?<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
Cheers,<br class="gmail_msg">
