Hi Christoph,

because I have to use Windows + PuTTY at work and I think the hidden password option would be the simplest solution in this case. Or does PuTTY support something like a shared clipboard? This would be the best solution, of course.

Cheers,
Michael

Hello,

when using pass via ssh on a remote system, I cannot make use of the
clipboard feature. In order to output the password without actually
displaying it, I wrote the following patch which prints the password in red on a red background while still being able to be manually copied to the
clipboard:

Just out of curiosity:
why don't you do a
  ssh remote "pass password" | xlclip
You would end up with the password in you clipboard and wouldn't have
to copy it manually.

Cheers,
