With some fonts, it's difficult to distinguish beetwen an upper I and a lower l.

Forcing the font for the password's entries could solve this problem (eg: "DejaVu Sans Mono" or whatever available on multiple OS).

    That is definitely doable.

    I have seen other password managers allowing the generator to exclude hard to distinguish characters (e.g. 0 vs O, l vs 1 etc.). Would this be helpful as well?

    Thanks for taking the time to put in the request.

    Yes, it's an other solution.

    But sometimes, the password is not generated by Sleutel but provided by someone. So I still think that a monospace font is a more generic solution.
