Random password generator
From Scriptwiki
This script will allow you to generate a random password of required length and using characters you want to.
; Usage: $pwgen(length,used characters) ; Examples ; $pwgen(10,a-z A-Z) ; $pwgen(20,a-z 0-9 0-9) ; $pwgen(17,0-9 $chr(36) $+ - $+ $chr(41))
alias pwgen { ; first we check if this alias is used as identifier if (!$isid) { return } ; also check if the length is correct if ($int($1) == 0) { return } ; the next part will fill &chars with characters that can be picked to make the password ; ; we cycle the different sets of "used characters" var %i = $numtok($2,32) while (%i > 0) { var %set = $gettok($2,%i,32) ; if the length of the current set is 3, we assume its the right syntax if ($len(%set) == 3) { ; get the ascii values of the two characters var %asc1 = $asc($left(%set,1)) , %asc2 = $asc($right(%set,1)) var %j = $iif(%asc1 < %asc2,%asc1,%asc2) , %max = $iif(%asc1 < %asc2,%asc2,%asc1) ; we will loop from the smallest ascii number to the largest while (%j <= %max) { ; we add the ascii value to the &chars binvar bset &chars $calc($bvar(&chars,0) + 1) %j inc %j } } dec %i } ; check if &chars is not empty if ($bvar(&chars,0) == 0) { return } ; ; now we filled &chars we randomly pick characters out of &chars to make the password var %i = $iif($abs($int($1)) > 900,900,$v1) ; we do this $1 times, as long as its not larger then 900 ; (wich is approximate the limit of commands) while (%i > 0) { var %pw = %pw $+ $bvar(&chars,$rand(1,$bvar(&chars,0))).text dec %i } ; and its done return %pw }
