[FWP] YAGOLF: password generation

["Filipe Brandenburger" <filipe-brandenburger@procergs.rs.gov.br>]

This probably was requested before, but I'd
like to see the shortest cmdline to generate
a password of 8 random alphanumeric characters.

The one I've got is 60 chars:

    echo|perl -pe "@a=(A..Z,a..z,0..9);eval's##\$a[rand@a]#;'x8"

This is actually what I've got after mangling a
lot over my original:

    perl -le
    '@a=("A".."Z","a".."z","0".."9");for$n
     (1..8){s##$a[rand@a]#};print'

Can it still be further shortened?
