apg [-a <algo>] [-m <length>] [-x <length>] [-L] [-U] [-N] [-S] [-H] [-C]
    [-l] [-M mode] [-E char_string] [-n num_of_pass] [-v] [-h] [-t]

Options:
    -a ALGORITH          Choose the password generation algorithm (Default: 1)
                          - 0: pronounceable password generation (koremutake syllables)
                          - 1: random password generation according to password modes/flags
    -m LENGTH            Minimum length of the password to be generated (Default: 12)
    -x LENGTH            Maximum length of the password to be generated (Default: 20)
    -f LENGTH            Fixed length of the password to be generated (Ignores -m and -x)
    -n NUMBER            Amount of password to be generated (Default: 6)
    -E CHARS             List of characters to be excluded in the generated password
    -M [LUNSHClunshc]    New style password parameters
                          - Note: new-style flags have higher priority than any of the old-style flags
    -L                   Toggle lower case characters in passwords (Default: on)
    -U                   Toggle upper case characters in passwords (Default: on)
    -N                   Toggle numeric characters in passwords (Default: on)
    -S                   Toggle special characters in passwords (Default: off)
    -H                   Avoid ambiguous characters in passwords (i. e.: 1, l, I, O, 0) (Default: off)
    -C                   Enable complex password mode (implies -L -U -N -S and disables -H)
                          - Note: this flag has higher priority than the other old-style flags
    -l                   Spell generated passwords in phonetic alphabet (Default: off)
    -p                   Check the HIBP database if the generated passwords was found in a leak before (Default: off)
                          - Note: this feature requires internet connectivity
    -h                   Show this help text
    -v                   Show version string
