You can create a sitekey for a new site using the passme add command as follows:
> passme add
Site name: google
Character (an):
Password length (14):
Comment (no input to finish): ID: sekifake

Comment (no input to finish):
New sitekey for google was written in (filename of the sitekey file) as
hash = sha3_384, char = an, len = 14, seed = GU/Gx=E9Zhvuk+fHny[PQ4iczHcEcc
First, you enter the site name. Then, you will be prompted to input the characters to use and the password length. If you simply press Enter, the default values are selected. In this example, the default values of an (alphanumeric) and 14 (length) are selected. If you change these values, they will become the default values for the next time.
Here is a list of character types that can be selected:
| Char | Explanation |
|---|---|
| a | Alphabet (A-Z, a-z) |
| n | Numeric (0-9) |
| an | Alphabet and numeric |
| ans | Alphabet, numeric, and symbols (+/#[$-=?@]_!) |
| ans95 | All 95 available ASCII characters |
Note: ans95 is not available in the Javascript version.
You can also add site-specific information as comments, such as your user ID, the URL of the login page, or any other notes. UTF-8 characters can be used in the comments. You can input multiple comment lines; press Enter on an empty line to finish.
The example above will create a sitekey entry for google in the sitekey file.
