GenPW was written since I do not like to constantly think of new
passwords for all those internet sites that now require a password to
enter. I could not find one on the internet to install (the only one I
could find was a link to a non-existant file), so I wrote my own. This
is my first PalmOS application, so it may not be very clean. I have
tested it using 3Com's PalmOS 3.0 Debug ROM with xcopilot as well as my
PalmPilot Professional and Palm IIIx. FYI, I added the Copy function so the
password could be easily pasted into an application like Secret! or
Mobile Account Manager so clean your clipboard after pasting by copying
something else to it, The password is not encripted on the clipboard.
NOTE: This program is dependant on the PalmOS SysRandom function, and
the robustness of the password is directly connected to that program and
the method used to seed it.
INSTALLATION:
Just use your normal method of installing PalmOS applications to install
the genpw.prc file onto your Palm Connected organizer.
