But nothing prevents you to generate such a password with an external tool (whatever) and then save this password on pass. You may also be able to pipe the output of the password generation tool to `pass` and try to automate or simplify the process. What I was trying to explain is that you can also display the password that is stored in pass in a camera friendly format (for example a 2D barcode), and then use the camera or your smartphone to copy-paste it. > > On Sat, Feb 6, 2016 at 11:45 AM, Dashamir Hoxha <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> On Sat, Feb 6, 2016 at 8:31 PM, Santiago Borrazás <[email protected]> >> wrote: >> >>> An user case would be that you use pass in your computer, but >>> occasionally you need some password in other devices like your kindle or >>> your mobile phone.
