I use my own script to generate passwords. I don't store anything beyond a salt. The password is just a hash of the website name, the salt and a master password. Then I just copypaste the result. Simple is best.

Is there a name for this kind of scheme where you can generate a password every time because you have all the parts needed? I've been seeing that people do this but don't have a name for it.
Hashing?
