# RustPass
|
|
|
|
An easy to use command-line password generator that creates secure passwords. Randomness is seeded cryptographically.
|
|
|
|
# Usage:
|
|
|
|
`./rustpass [number of characters]`<br>
|
|
or <br>
|
|
`./rustpass [number of characters] "[excluded characters]"`
|
|
|
|
<hr>
|
|
|
|
eg: `./rustpass 32` <br>
|
|
output: `E$bRUSTiPASS*,ISl{!M&<\[COOL0eVw` <br>
|
|
eg (with excluded characters): `./gopass 32 "$,!"` <br>
|
|
output: `EYbRUSTiPASS*2ISl{?M&<\[COOL0eVw` <- note the excluded characters are not present in the output

# How to install/use for Windows:
|
|
|
|
1. Download Windows binary, it may be helpful to simply rename it to "rustpass.exe" to keep
|
|
commands shorter. (Make sure to add .exe, this won't need to be typed to execute the file from the CLI, but it is
|
|
required for Windows to recognize the binary)
|
|
2. Move the file to your `C:\Users\[Username]` directory
|
|
3. Opening the console *without* Administrator privileges will put you in the directory mentioned above by default
|
|
4. Now type `rustpass [number of characters]` (Ex. `rustpass 64`) to generate a new password!
