SYNOPSIS

passwordmaker [-f <string>] [--search <string>] [-L] [-b] [-0] [-x] [-r <string>] [-a <MD4|MD5|SHA1|SHA256|RIPEMD160>] [--account_skip <integer>] [--account <string>] [-c <string>] [-g <integer>] [-d <string>] [-s <string>] [-p <string>] [-u <string>] [-l <none|before|after|both>] [-e <1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9>] [-m <string>] [--] [-v] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

A small, lightweight, free, extension for Internet Explorer, Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape, Flock, and Yahoo! Widgets which creates unique, secure passwords that are very easy for you to retrieve but no one else. Nothing is stored anywhere, anytime, so there's nothing to be hacked, lost, or stolen.

This is the Command Line Version.

CONFIGFILE

passwordmaker by default looks for a Configfile in $HOME/.passwordmaker.rdf. The syntax is compatible to rdf-files generated by the sister-applications for Browsers. (see below) You can simply take a rdf-File and place it in $HOME/.passwordmaker.rdf. An example for the syntax can be found in /usr/share/doc/passwordmaker-cli/passwordmaker.rdf
