I know how to create a password generator in command prompt but it only uses numbers. Is there a way to make it generate letters as well? for example, ASDE-DASD-DWAS-AWDS.

Could you share some code with how you're doing it for numbers? – Matt Bridges Oct 21 '11 at 21:26

Assuming Linux, try this:
cat /dev/urandom | tr -dc '0-9' | head -c8
Change the last number (8 here) to be how many digits you want.
I have no idea what you're using this for, but this does work. There may be better ways to do what you really want to do.
