Description-en: Perl module implementing a random password generator
String::MkPasswd defines a single function, mkpasswd(), to generate
random passwords. The function is meant to be a simple way for
developers and system administrators to easily generate a relatively
secure password.
.
The exportable mkpasswd() function returns a single scalar: a random
password. By default, this password is nine characters long with a
random distribution of four lower-case characters, two upper-case
characters, two digits, and one non-alphanumeric character. These
parameters can be tuned by the user, as described in the /"ARGUMENTS"
section.
