# Use
Run the script interactively with `./pwd.sh` or copy it to a folder in `$PATH`
Type `w` to write a password.
Type `r` to read a password.
Type `d` to delete a password.
Options can also be passed on the command line.
Create a password with a length of 30 characters for *gmail*:

Append `<space>q` to suppress generated password output.
