Thanks. I think I might decide to go for this one <https://github.com/jaonoctus/nip06-cli> as it may have a lighter interface (written by the same author). Or as I tend to avoid installing too much JavaScript software I may try <https://github.com/darosior/python-bip32> as I already use Python's [mnemonic module][1] for generating the mnemonic phrase needed for my lightning wallet. Is binary seed described in NIP-06 the same as what is called [entropy here][1]?
