I was sorting through my /usr/X11R6/bin/startx text-file and noticed:

mcookie=`dd if=/dev/urandom bs=16 count=1 2>/dev/null | hexdump -e \\"%08x\\"`

I started playing around with `cat /dev/urandom` and `head -1 /dev/urandom`
so my question is... How can I use the head -1 method and change the output
into just [A-Za-z0-9] and no spaces or punctuation?  And specify length?
