Синопсис (Synopsis)
mcookie [options]
Описание (Description)
mcookie generates a 128-bit random hexadecimal number for use
with the X authority system. Typical usage:
xauth add :0 . mcookie
The "random" number generated is actually the MD5 message digest
of random information coming from one of the sources getrandom(2)
system call, /dev/urandom, /dev/random, or the libc pseudo-random
functions, in this preference order. See also the option --file.
Параметры (Options)

Read from file only this number of bytes. This option is
meant to be used when reading additional randomness from a

The number argument may be followed by the multiplicative
suffixes KiB=1024, MiB=1024*1024, and so on for GiB, TiB,
PiB, EiB, ZiB and YiB (the "iB" is optional, e.g., "K" has
the same meaning as "KiB") or the suffixes KB=1000,
MB=1000*1000, and so on for GB, TB, PB, EB, ZB and YB.
