						Why does JavaScript suck?  The answer is simple: history.
						JavaScript was created by a really smart guy called Brendan Eich
						over a period of a week or so.  He did it because Microsoft was
						largely perceived as evil, and his aim was to create a programming
						platform in the Netscape navigator.  That way, the browser would run
						everywhere, and the OS wouldn’t matter as much.  HAHA! Down with
						Microsoft.  You can see how well that worked out.

				Password generators are incredibly useful for those who don’t use the
				same password everywhere.  The issue is that everyone uses the same
				password everywhere.  Hopefully when people see how easy password
				generation can be, that’ll change; there really is no excuse to not use
				different passwords these days.  @code{-mkpass} aims to be the absolute
				simplest password generator possible while still providing the
				functionality you need.ls

				Two factor authentication is also something you should be using — and

				The most basic usage of @code{-mkpass} is to just call @code{-mkpass}.
				By default this will generate a 64-character password made up of random
				printable characters.  If you need to use specific characters (for
				example, maybe you can only use alphanumeric characters) then you can
				simply specify a
				@code {
					a
						href="https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/tr.1.html"
						target="_blank"
					{-tr(1)}
				}
				style range:

				You can also specify the length of the password using
				the @code{--l} flag:

				And that ladies and gentlemen, is the entire program.  A nice minimal
				tool that does one thing and one thing only, while integrating nicely
				with the UNIX environment.  This is (in my opinion), an example of
				well-designed software.
