Visibility into dictionary size and entropy.

Open garretwilson opened this issue 1 year ago • 13 comments

From the screen shots it looks like the plugin allows various dictionaries to be used. Does the plugin provide any visibility into the size of the dictionary being used, so that the user might have an idea of the entropy (a simple calculation based upon the size of the dictionary and the number of words used) of the resulting passphrase?

I can't find the word "dictionary" or "entropy" in the readme. Maybe the plugin provides this information somewhere else?

Otherwise, without having a lot of experience with the various dictionaries, a user might not know offhand how the generated passphrase compares to a completely random password of a smaller length.
