gecos - creates dictionary with words from gecosfield of passwordlist
SSSYYYNNNOOOPPPSSSIIISSS
gecos [-c] [-l] [-1] [-r] [-a] [-n] [-f passwordfile] [-o outfile]
DDDEEESSSCCCRRRIIIPPPTTTIIIOOONNN
Gecos generates a dictionary consisting of all (readable) words that
occur in the gecos-field (real-name-field) of the passwordfile given by
the -f switch (if no -f switch is specified, standard-input is used).
The dictionary will be written to the file specified by the -o switch (if
no -o switch is specified, standard-output is used). Words can be
converted to all-lowercase, all-uppercase, name-alike (first character
uppercase, rest lowercase). Furthermore, all specified conversions can
also be generated reversed.
Use of one of the options -c, -l or -1 causes the normal word not te be
generated anymore unless the -n switch is specified.
By default, only ``real words'' (i.e. words of more than two characters,
consisting only of ['a'..'z', 'A'..'Z']) are generated. Use of the -a
switch causes all words of more than two characters to be generated.
OOOPPPTTTIIIOOONNNSSS
-c Specifies that words will be converted to all-uppercase characters
-l Words will be converted to all-lowercase characters
-1 Same as -l, only first character will be converted to uppercase
-r All specified conversions will also be generated reversed
-a all alphanumeric words of more than two characters are generated.
-n Use of one of the options -c, -l or -1 causes the normal word not
to be generated. This switch causes the normal word to be generated
again.
-fname
Causes passwordfile name to be used instead of standard-input.
-oname
Causes file name to be used to write dictionary to, instead of
standard-output.
