Commandline Support
All password modes in Password Generator Professional can be specified in masks, and commandline mode works in this way by requesting the mask to generate the passwords.
We recommend to use the Make Commandline Batch File function in the program to automaticly generate a batchfile containing the commandline to use.
Examples of using commandline:
| Description: |
Commandline: |
| Normal Mode |
PGP.exe /output "C:\passwords.txt" /format "$p" /quantity 100 /showmsg /unique /mask "{N:aAn,8,8}" |
| Masked Mode |
PGP.exe /output "C:\passwords.txt" /format "$p" /quantity 100 /showmsg /unique /mask "{#:u,1,1000,0}{P:vVcC,r,4,8}" |
| Dictionary Mode |
PGP.exe /output "C:\passwords.txt" /format "$p" /quantity 100 /showmsg /unique /mask "{I:Dic1,n,0,0}" |
| Pronouncable Mode |
PGP.exe /output "C:\passwords.txt" /format "$p" /quantity 100 /showmsg /unique /mask "{P:vVcC,r,5,8}" |
Print:
If you want to print the passwords use "/print" instead of "/output", this will print the passwords using the default printer on your computer. Example:
| Description: |
Commandline: |
| Print Normal Mode: |
PGP.exe /print /format "$p" /quantity 100 /showmsg /unique /mask "{N:aAn,8,8}" |
Copy to Clipboard:
If you want to copy the passwords use "/clipboard" instead of "/output", this will copy the passwords to your clipboard. Example:
| Description: |
Commandline: |
| Clipboard Normal Mode: |
PGP.exe /clipboard /format "$p" /quantity 100 /showmsg /unique /mask "{N:aAn,8,8}" |
