Blurred Visions

Random password generator written in perl, that also output the relevant phonetic alphabet entry for each character of the password. Useful for strong emergency backdoor passwords, to prevent the chance of needing it, and not being able to tell the difference between a 1 and an L character, or a Zero and an O. Arguments are passed to the script specifying the password length and the number of passwords to generate.

Changes in 2.0:
User can now select a password scheme. i.e. User can specify whether they want lower case chars, upper case chars, numbers, symbols or extended symbols (or a combination or each). It means that all passwords generated will meet the specified complexity.

Note: Run with no arguments for usage.

Examples:

Numbers + lowercase letters

./pw_gen.pl 3 10 na

Generating 3 password(s) of 10 character(s) length with complexity scheme 'na':

3005629kw2 (three - zero - zero - five - six - two - nine - kilo - whiskey - two)

9f9ef3e684 (nine - foxtrot - nine - echo - foxtrot - three - echo - six - eight - four)

xj1312f4gi (xray - juliet - one - three - one - two - foxtrot - four - golf - india)


Numbers + lowercase letters + regular symbols

./pw_gen.pl 3 10 nas

Generating 3 password(s) of 10 character(s) length with complexity scheme 'nas':

=o9!dskbk6 (equals - oscar - nine - exclamation - delta - sierra - kilo - bravo - kilo - six)

=.#ck8u%9g (equals - period - hash - charlie - kilo - eight - uniform - percent - nine - golf)

1m+.+a23c9 (one - mike - plus - period - plus - alpha - two - three - charlie - nine)


Uppercase letters

./pw_gen.pl 3 10 A
