gpw (generate pronouncable passwords) is a quite old unix program. There's a java version at
http://www.multicians.org/thvv/gpw.html (http://www.multicians.org/thvv/gpw.html) and a C/C++ version at
http://www.multicians.org/thvv/tvvtools.html#gpw (http://www.multicians.org/thvv/tvvtools.html#gpw).
If that link should break, try this one (http://www.agh.cc.kcl.ac.uk/files/unix/archive/gpw-6.94.tar.gz) at http://www.agh.cc.kcl.ac.uk/files/unix/archive/
We've used GPW for a couple of projects and it's great to see a perl version. Now how about a CPAN module so the code can be used in other perl apps? :-)
