What do you do on pages that require / forbid special characters and require / forbid length >8 characters?


Thats an easy tweak (global replace the forbidden characters after hash) on the hash generator and for the max length I normally just copy paste the required length.


But how do you know which transformation to apply when you log in? Unless you store the rules for each site somewhere, but then it's not really portable system.


Like I said before: rules are stored in my brain. So far reliable and portable :)
