Passgen is a tool for generating passwords of any length. Moreover, it also allows you to write the password to a file and encrypt or decrypt it whenever needed. It's important to notice that you can only decrypt it using a key generated by the encryption process, which may give the users more security since they can still maintain the files in their machines but hide their keys.
