The documentation for the 12Dicts project at It is the understanding of the author of ``xkcdpass`` that purely mechanical transformation does not imbue copyright in the resulting work. This word list is derived mechanically from `12Dicts `_ by Alan Beale. The original word list from `xkcdpass` versions earlier than 1.10.0 is also provided as a convenience, and is available under `legacy`. Please refer to the EFF documentation linked above for more information. Two shorter variants of that list, `eff-short` and `eff-special`, are also included. As it was originally intended for use with Diceware ensure that the number of words in your passphrase is at least six when using it.
