This program uses statistics on the frequency of three-letter sequences in English to generate passwords. The statistics are generated from your dictionary by the program load_trigram.

As far as possible, the history and structure of keeping the code in a single file has been respected while refactoring. The execution loop has been almost completely rewritten given the modern (2026) context. Types have been kept as JSDoc comments, to stay within a single file.

LICENSE.md and README.md have been extracted for modern paresability.
