Hi!

I noticed a LOT of *nix people (and others too) use the same tool to
generate passwords, http://pwgen.sourceforge.net/

Since the tool generates "passwords which can be easily memorized by a
human" the keyspace of those should be smaller than the brute force
keyspace.

Did anybody look at implementing the pwgen algorithm for guessing
passwords in john?

BR,

Albert
