apg - Automated Password Generator

I discovered apg recently, a handy tool for generating secure passwords on the commandline.

user@host:~$ apg

Please enter some random data (only first 16 are significant)
(eg. your old password):>
Ujecabhytor3 (Uj-ec-ab-hyt-or-THREE)
yaxJant7 (yax-Jant-SEVEN)
eewIcIkheaj9 (eew-Ic-Ik-heaj-NINE)
GitAbpavhav7 (Git-Ab-pav-hav-SEVEN)
GrysAcksId8 (Grys-Acks-Id-EIGHT)
VurHocs1 (Vur-Hocs-ONE)

You can also pass a seed to apg via the commandline for use within scripts:

user@host:~$ apg -c date +%s
