Show HN: r.ger.lv – simple random string generation

I've implemented a small tool for generating random strings, maybe someone else will find it useful.

- r.ger.lv - default is 20 characters [a-zA-Z0-9]

- r.ger.lv/<len> <len> of [a-zA-Z0-9]

- r.ger.lv/s-<len> <len> of [a-zA-Z0-9_+-.,!@#$%^&*();\/|"']

`curl -L r.ger.lv/25` - if you want to run from the terminal.

My general concern with this type of service is that the strings could wind up directly in a rainbow table and that might defeat one of the reasons for using it.

Not an accusation, just an observation about the limits of the service.

Good luck.
