About Password Generator

Remember a single password to generate repeatable, secure passwords for multiple sites. Chrome implementation of Nic Wolff's SHA1 password generator ( http://angel.net/~nic/passwd.sha1.1a.html ). Extension adds a 'save' button to store the master password (optionally), and will try to pre-fill the site name with the current site's root domain name. Last three characters of password will always be "1a!" for sites that require a combination of letters, numbers and/or punctuation. (new) Optionally, they can be set to "1a" for compatibility with angel.net. *CHANGELOG* Version 0.3.0 (20-02-2025) + Updated for manifest version 3 + Use chrome local and session storage APIs over localstorage and sessionstorage + Use web APIs for SHA digest and base64 encoding + Add support for longer passwords + Support SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 Version 0.2.0 (03-20-2018) + Adding option for longer (up to 27/28 character passwords, before adding extra characters). + Recognize .io domains when stripping subdomains + Upgrade manifest version to support chrome 67 Version 0.1.3.6 (04-21-2010) +Fixed options page settings not being saved Version 0.1.3.5 (03-11-2010) +Adding options page and session storage option +Removed 'save' checkbox from popup +Added compatibility option with angel .net (passwords end in '1a!' vs '1a') +Improved domain name parser +Better button style Version 0.1.3.2 (12-12-2009) +Added default_title Version 0.1.3.1 (08-12-2009) +Rounding popup corners Version 0.1.3.0 (29-11-2009) +Automatically copy generated password to clipboard
