Table of Contents

Passpal was inspired by Pipal. Passpal 0.4 is an extremely early version. Feedback welcome nonetheless. Use the comment section below, email or Twitter.

Requirements

Passpal is being developed and tested on Ruby 1.9.3. Ruby 1.9 is probably required.

Download

Passpal on Github

Features

  • Much faster than Pipal
  • Made for UTF-8 (which should mean no encoding problems - use dictclean to clean your text file)
  • Extendable (to extend Passpal with a module you just extend the Agent class and implement two methods: analyze(word) and report())
  • Configurable (you can via the command-line specify which modules you want to run or not run, by using the –include and –exclude options)
  • Some stats try to focus on effectiveness (count/keyspace), not just frequency
  • Only one file (passpal.rb)
  • Progress bar on a per module basis

Help output

C:\passpal>ruby passpal.rb --help
passpal 0.4, T. Alexander Lystad <tal@lystadonline.no> (www.thepasswordproject.com)

Usage on Windows: ruby passpal.rb [switches] filename [> outfile.txt]
Usage on Linux:   ./passpal.rb [switches] filename [> outfile.txt]
--help                   Show help
--top                    Show top X results. Defaults to 10. Some reports are always shown in full. Example: --top 20
--include STRING         Run these modules, separate with comma. Example: --include 1,3,5
--exclude STRING         Run all modules except these, separate with comma. Example: --exclude 6
--profile                Pretty inaccurate profiling, but should give you an idea what the relative time cost of the modules are
--outfile filename       Output to this file
filename                 The file to analyze. Must be UTF-8 encoded.
