Reinhold

Background

For passwords you don't need to remember, there's 1Password. For everything else, there's diceware.

Diceware was created by Arnold Reinhold, hence the name of this application.

I built this tool because I wanted a quick and secure local diceware password generator. Also because I wanted to build something with Rust.

For a quick overview of what diceware is, check wikipedia.

For a good discussion of strong master passwords, see this post from 1Password.

EFF's word lists are available here. This tool accepts any number of consecutive rolls.

The best explanation, really, is xkdc #936:

Usage

```bash USAGE: reinhold [OPTIONS] --input --length

FLAGS: -h, --help Prints help information -V, --version Prints version information

OPTIONS: -i, --input Sets the input file to use -l, --length Number of words to generate -s, --separator Word separator (defaults to space) ```

NB: I strongly recommend manipulating the output in some way. xkpassword provides some solid options for doing so.

You can also supply your own list if it matches the format of the EFF list. That is as follows, with the first column representing consecutive rolls:

bash 11111 abacus 11112 abdomen 11113 abdominal 11114 abide 11115 abiding 11116 ability 11121 ablaze 11122 able 11123 abnormal
