#CCDC Password Generator

This is a password generator for CCDC at WWU. The conditions and configuration of this password generator are specified below.

##Requirements There's a couple requirements for the password generator to work, and they're all pretty simple.

• Run bundle install to install the backports and clipboard gems. This solves any dependency problems with Ruby 1.8.7 v. 1.9.2.

• Two text files in the same directory as pass.rb: words.txt and symbols.txt. Both are populated with common phrases and symbols, but can be changed at your discretion.

##Conditions In terms of the actual generator, the specifications are laid out below:

Passwords will be of format 1ab# where:
1 is any 2 digit number in the range 00 to 99
a and b are words drawn from the WWU CCDC Phonetic Alphabet. The first letter of each word is upper case, the rest are lower case
# is any symbol from ! @ # $ % ^ * +

Forking/improving is encouraged - I only know enough Ruby to get by. Want to contact me? I'm on Twitter as @imkmf.

Happy passwording.
