You can pass the -s flag if the password can only be comprised of letters and numbers (no symbols). This is a dumb requirement, but I've seen it enough to add the flag.

Naturally, password strength suffers when we place restrictions on the alphabet. Setting small length restrictions has the same effect.
% ./nxn-gen -s -l=5
Password Generated: 6d16G
Password Strength: 10
% ./nxn-gen -s -l=5
Password Generated: 976Br
Password Strength: 10
% ./nxn-gen -s -l=5
Password Generated: 38X1o
Password Strength: 10
Here's how to generate 10 passwords of length 30, which can contain any letter, number, or symbol.
