Description: php Passphrase Generator. Many encryption programs require passphrases for successful encryption. Most users do not choose strong enough passphrases (so they program cannot provide a strong encryption).
phpPPG generates passphrases for you. You can modify the amount of characters being used in a single passphrase, the amount of passphrases to generate in one shot and the characterset to use.

<?PHP /************************************************************************************************************ $Id: phpPPG.php,v 0.2 2003/06/03 01:27:10 tom Exp $ PHP Passphrase Generator ======================== This tool was designed to make passphrase generation for encryption programs easy. Most encryption tools require a passphrase to provide encryption. Though I've seen many users around who do not choose strong passphrases to ensure strong encryption. phpPPG renders a passphrase for you. You can specify the length of the passphrase, the amount of passphrases to create in a single time and the characterset that's being used to generate the passphrases.
