+ makepass - create several random passwords
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ makepass [OPTIONS] [NUM]
+
+ If a NUM is provided, passwords will be NUM characters long.
+
+ By default ` + "`makepass`" + ` will output passwords from the three following classes:
+
+ - Normal passwords - random strings with letters (both lower and upper
+ case), numbers, and dashes and underscores.
+
+ - Passwords with special characters - random strings generated from lower
+ and upper case letters, numbers, and the following characters:
+ !#$%&/()=?+-_,.;:<>[]{}|@*
+
+ - Passphrases - if we find a dictionary, a series of eight random words
+ from the dictionary, separated by dashes. The number of words can not be
+ changed, but you do not have to use all of them. Use as mane as you want.
+
+ The first character will always be alphabetic, and the last will always be
+ alphanumeric.
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ makepass has the following options:
+
+ -h
+ output this help-text
+ -l
+ length of passwords. See MAKEPASS_LENGTH below
+ -n
+ number of passwords. See MAKEPASS_NUMBER below
+ -p
+ print length of number
+
+ENVIRONMENT
+ makepass examines the following environmental variables.
+
+ MAKEPASS_LENGTH
+ Specifies the length of passwords. Valid values are 0-255. If 0, a
+ random value between 8 and 42 will be used for each password. -l
+ overrides this environmental variable, and the argument NUM overrides
+ that again. So ` + "MAKEPASS_LENGTH=10 makepass -l 12 14" + ` will give
+ passwords that are 14 characters long, even though both -l and
+ MAKEPASS_LENGTH also specifies a length.
+
+ MAKEPASS_NUMBER
+ The number of passwords to generate. This formula is used to determine
+ how many passwords from each group should be generated:
+ - (n) normal passwords
+ - (n / 3 * 2 + 1) special passwords
+ - (n / 2) passphrases
+ Where n is 10 by default. Valid values for n are 1-255. Floating-poing
+ math is not used, so results may vary.
+
+ MAKEPASS_PRINTLEN
+ If 1, print length of all passwords. If 0, don\'t.
+
+ MAKEPASS_NORMAL
+ String of characters from which to generate "normal" passwords.
+ Defaults to:
+ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789-_
+
+ MAKEPASS_SPECIAL
+ String of characters from which to generate passwords with special
+ characters. Defaults to the same characters as in MAKEPASS_NORMAL, plus
+ these:
+ !#$%&/()=?+-_,.;:<>[]{}|@*
+
+ MAKEPASS_WORDLIST
+ Specifies the dictionary we find words for passphrases in. If this is
+ unset or empty, we try "/usr/share/dict/words". If that file does not
+ exist, no passphrases will be provided.
+
+NOTES
+ This scripts makes use of $RANDOM - a builtin in zsh which produces a
+ pseudo-random integer between 0 and 32767, newly generated each time the
+ parameter is referenced. We initially seed the random number generator with
+ a random 32bit integer generated from /dev/random. This should provide
+ enough randomnes to generate sufficiently secure passwords.
