Advanced usage

The extra options are actually pre-defined charsets

python -m crstr [-h] [--version] [-l strlength]
                [-B | -x | -X | -o | -b | -d | -a | -A | --lower-case | -w | --lower-word | --upper-word | -c charset]
                [-v | -p | -r regex]

  -l strlength, --length strlength
                        The length of the output string
  -B, --64, --base64    use base64 charset
  -x, --16, --hexadecimal
                        use lower-case hexadecimal charset
  -X, --16U, --HEXADECIMAL
                        use upper-case hexadecimal charset
  -o, --8, --octal      use octal charset
  -b, --2, --binary     use binary charset
  -d, --10, --decimal   use decimal charset
  -a, --alpha           use alphabet (both upper-case & lower-case) charset
  -A, --ALPHA           use upper-case alphabet charset
  --lower-case          use lower-case alphabet charset
  -w, --word            use word charset (alphabet & number)
  --lower-word          use lower-case word charset
  --upper-word          use upper-case word charset
  -c charset, --charset charset
                        use customized charset
  -v, --variable        generate python variable-name-allowed string
  -p, --package         generate common package-name-styled string

You can give this command an alias to simplify the it:
Add the following line to you bashrc

Usually ~/.bashrc (current user) or /etc/bashrc (global); if you use Git For Windows, it's /etc/bash.bashrc

alias crstr='python -m crstr'

Then you can use the command

crstr [options]

CAUTIONS

1. An error would occur when attempting to generate a random string longer than 101 characters using regex, this is a known bug of rstr which is the core library of this program
