  (but have not tried to prove) that using Koremutake is going to lead to it being easier to brute force a password list down the line.

    Text::Password::Pronounceable wins, simply because I can find it on CPAN by searching for Password via module name. I normally don't do a Search All.

  And incidentally, "koremutake" is easier to pronounce than "pronounceable".

    Core-mu-take? Or Co-ray-mu-ta-ki? I don't have to think about "pronounceable". :)

  Jynegra sounds like a multinational corporation that does something you're not quite sure about. "Jynegra: At the forefront of progress."

• The winner: apg (Score:1)

  by pjf (2464)

  The winner is the unix apg (auto password generate) command, simply because it tells you how to pronounce your passwords:

  pjf@teddybear:~$ apg -n10 -m6 -x10 -t
dyknip (dy-knip)
FereOw (Fe-re-Ow)
otAlfig^ (ot-Alf-ig-CIRCUMFLEX)
tasEms (tas-Ems)
AtIfRith9 (At-If-Rith-NINE)
ucGuj+ (uc-Guj-PLUS_SIGN)
igsyehod0 (igs-ye-hod-ZERO)
cogwig_ (cog-wig-UNDERSCORE)
seajaf (seaj-af)
shoHiujca (sho-Hi-uj-ca)


  If any of the modules provides pronunciation tips (as does apg), then it wins. Otherwise, T::P::Pronounceable
• A note about "say" (Score:2)

  by bart (450)

  In scripts like these it really jumps at me what a silly keyword "say" is. In a script that states that a word is pronounceable, I expect that the script is going to try to say it out loud. And that that is what "say" is doing.
  
  It's not.

• Module naming (Score:1)

  by hex (3272)

  I notice you've used String:: while clkao used Text::. For a vaguely similar module I used Encode:: [cpan.org] (and if you go further along the words-and-numbers spectrum you end up, predictably, at Number:: [cpan.org]).

  I have a pipe dream that one day there will be CPAN author round table meetings where similar modules in disparate namespaces will be agreed into consistent groupings. Ah well...
• Ruby implementation done :-) (Score:1)

  by gwolf (463)

  I liked your module. And although I'm more a Perl than a Ruby guy, I felt I needed something like this. So... Well, for the love of $DEITY, I cannot find the way to upload the project page [rubyforge.org] to RubyForge (and I've done it, for my other projects there!)... But if you are curious and want to look at how I reimplemented what I saw from you, just clone the Git repository:
  git clone git://rubyforge.org/koremutake.git
  Thanks for a neat idea!

    Seems I only needed to publicly ridicule myself to find a way to upload a project page. Anyway, Ruby koremutake implementation [rubyforge.org]. So there.
