Password Assistant

Password Assistant is a handy dandy little utility from codepoetry that  uses some hooks into Keychain Access to create complicated passwords easily.

It is open source (you gotta love that) and free (woo!).

As adam pointed out all codepoet has done is written an app that simply calls the password assistant built into OS X because he was fed up with going to keychain access or the accounts prefpane to open it.

It is the exact same thing. It's showing how to call the private methods that initiate it as well as letting you call it anytime you want it just by starting the program.

KeyChain Access.app has this exact same thing built in (looks nearly exactly the same too), but I guess thats cool if you don't want to open up KeyChain every time you need a new password. ;)

How is it different than the password assistant built into Mac OS X? Looks to be an exact clone from the screen shot.
