`pword` is a utility to generate strong passwords that are memorable.
```
$ pword online
amiable obvious abdomen vogue
hexagon xerox collarbone syringes
double walrus judiciary olympics
enquirer mammal saltshaker guitar
```
It is based on the concept behind [XKCD 936](https://xkcd.com/936/) and [XKCD-password-generator](https://github.com/redacted/XKCD-password-generator). It makes use of [EFF's typo-tolerant wordlist](https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/07/new-wordlists-random-passphrases) to provide live autocomplete.

This mode generates a 4-word password from the 1,296-word list. The number of possible combinations would be

If an attacker could brute-force passwords on a website at 1,000 requests/second (where he would definitely hit rate limits), it would take about
years to crack it. This is secure enough for online websites.
# Offline
This mode generates a 6-word password. This equates to
```
1,296⁶ = 4,738,381,338,321,616,896
