Replaced words.rs with password_generator.rs #390

…or some buttons I was going to implement in cursive.

Thanks for the pull request! I think there is a case to be made to be able to both generate passwords with normal words, and more dense entropy. Maybe this should be a selection option on the generate password dialog. |

I added a passphrase generator with the same word list used before and included a dialog option in cursive to use the password generator or the passphrase generator. Let me know if you have any other suggestions. |
…me for open and create in cursive

Made the suggested changes. |
… or 1 for less or more entropy in passwords. Also, included an option to reveal password and passphrase so you can see what your password will be before saving.

I added a bunch of new dialog options. Let me know if you have any nits! There is a bug currently with reveal password where if you generate a password and try to make the password secret again, you need to press the reveal button a couple times to get it to make the password secret again. Let me know if you have a fix for this. |

Sorry for taking a long time to review this.
I don't think this location will work, on a normal linux distribution the binary will be placed in /usr/bin/ripasso-cursive and these kind of files would go into something like /usr/share/ripasso/eff_large.wordlist.
I think the easiest solution would be to put the wordlist into the binary at compile time.

In this pull request I removed words.rs and it's use in the generate password button in cursive. This is because the password's generated were only 6 random all lower cased words. I replaced it with a function that creates random passwords containing all lower case letters, uppercase letters, numbers, and special characters. If you desire even more security you can change the type from 0 to 1 in password_generator() which includes the extended ASCII characters.
