PW-Inspector reads passwords in and prints those which meet the requirements.

The return code is the number of valid passwords found, 0 if none was found.

Use for security: check passwords, if 0 is returned, reject password choice.

Use for hacking: trim your dictionary file to the pw requirements of the target.

Usage only allowed for legal purposes.
