XkPassword

XkPassword is a C# reimplementation of Bart Busschots' xkpasswd.pm, a library for generating secure memorable passwords inspired mainly by a well-known xkcd comic.

This library is provided free of charge, under the same license as xkpasswd.pm: see LICENSE.XkPassword for details.

The built-in English wordlist was generated from SCOWL, which is made available under an MIT-style license: see LICENSE.WordList for details.

Differences between XkPassword and xkpasswd.pm

XkPassword is a reimplementation, not a direct port. I sought only to duplicate the core functionality of xkpasswd.pm. Therefore, XkPassword does not have multiple preset configurations as xkpasswd.pm does, though the XkPasswd class's constructor does set defaults similar to the "default" configuration of xkpasswd.pm. It is assumed that the consuming application will provide some capacity for storing and reusing different configurations.

XkPassword.Demo

XkPassword.Demo is a rudimentary application which demonstrates all capabilities of XkPassword except the ability to choose a different word list file. It is built using Windows Presentation Foundation and requires version 4.5 of the .NET Framework.
