> Why does "accepted/popular" matter? Not a great choice of words, perhaps. I was thinking in terms of those password managers which are written by others and included in the Debian repositories. As it happens, pass(1) appeared to be precisely what I was looking for. My original code stores all passwords in a single file, whereas pass stores each password in a separate file. In addition, I don't need pass in order to decode the password files. If pass every goes away or disappears from the Debian repos, I can still fetch my passwords (and associated data). Plus, it will insert any line in the password file into the clipboard. And it's a terminal app. Yay. Paul -- Paul M.
