## Description
|
|
This utility (age-gen-passphrase) generates secret and public keys (into stdout) from your entered passphrase or piped stdin
|
|
Strong password highly recomended
|

## Password selection
|
|
To keep entropy at at the same level of $\geq 2^{256}$ bits, you should use long password.

Exact amount of required characters can be calculated by formula: $\lceil 256 / log_2(Nchars) \rceil$
