Password Generator


It is a small utility - more kind of an on-going development effort - which generates passwords as you might have guessed correctly.
It is published under GPL and it uses pwgen by Theodore Ts'o.
With the use of phonemes you get passwords which are easier to remember.

This software requires Mac OS X 10.4.x to run!

Version history:


0.2 <2006-08-13>
-Eliminated a bug where sometimes not the demanded length of the passwords was reached
-added version check (app menu)
-added contact by email possibillity (app menu)
-App checks system version to ensure that it meets the minimum version

0.1 <2006-07-17>
First public release with English and German translation.
This project is an opportunity for me to experiment with different technologies and hence this app will be extended more and more in future releases. Right now you will find the integration of an open source software (pwgen by Theodore Ts'o) in a simple way and localization via nibtool.


Download


Feel free to download version 0.2. It should run natively on Intel Macs, too - but is yet not tested thoroughly.
If you like to get the source code you can download it as well: sources.

As you can see there are not that much apps yet. I hope to find some time to continure coding in the near future. Until then, enjoy this litlle utility.
