I would like to be able to run this as a stand-alone mnemonic password generator from a terminal like:

$ ./bip39 --entropy=256 --lang=en --mnemoniconly

And grab the password from stdout for use in another program. Would something like this be feasible or within the scope of this project?

tyler-smith commented 6 years ago

Not sure when I'll have time to build this but I think it's both feasible and within scope.

In your example, what is the --mnemoniconly flag doing? Or rather, what is returned in addition to the mnemonic without the flag?

The --mnemoniconly flag may have been a misread of the code. 😅

Thanks @tyler-smith for this library, I wrote a commandline tool for creating keys, mnemonic seeds and HD addresses with this library.

It is very simple and useful, maybe you should try it. @ghost
