# Usage: htpasswd.pl [encrypted_password]
#
# If no arguments are given then it will ask for a password and will show its
# encrypted form to be saved on a file.
#
# If the argument is an encrypted password it will ask the password and will
# verify if it's valid.
#
# WARNING: don't use the character colon ':' as part of your name or password
# since this character is used as field separator.
