Generate a random 8 character password

• 
  

  perl -le 'print map { ("a".."z")[rand 26] } 1..8'

• Explanation
  The map function executes the:

  ("a".."z")[rand 26]

  code, iterating over the range 1..8.
  
  In each iteration a random letter is chosen from the alphabet. When the iteration is done, the result is passed to the print function which prints the password out.
