Subject: Awesome Password Generator external mode
Attached is an external mode that replays the Awesome Password Generator
1.3.2 RNG.
https://code.google.com/p/awesome-password-generator/
This bug is fixed in 1.4.0, and you should probably change your passwords
if you had been using this program prior to that.
This mode is hard-coded to generating 16 characters, numbers, uppers,
lowers and symbols, with "easy to type" unticked and "remove confusing
characters" unticked.
Alex put a lot of effort into 1.4.0 with removing bias and ensuring
accurate strength estimates, and the program has an appealing UI.
There is still bias caused by rejecting passwords without all classes
represented, but it is assumed that users would manually reject these
anyway, so he felt it was better that the password strength meter
accurately represented this.
Regards,
Michael
