I would like to ask the Suckless community about how they generally solve -- or would like to solve -- the problem of user credentials input in their applications. To be more clear, I'm not referring to actually authenticating / authorizing users (i.e. checking the credentials for correctness), but just about how does an application obtain the credentials from the users. For example let's say that we build a chat application that needs to have the users credentials (i.e. username / password) so it can pass it -- plain text or a cryptographic transformation -- to the server; but how does the application request the user for such credentials? My main questions are about: a) what kind of API would the developer expect to have? (is there such an API already?) b) what kind of method should actually be used? (read it from TTY, spawn a reader process, etc?) For example I'm aware of a couple existing methods -- some are pretty good solutions, some are just hacks -- but none of them have something which resembles an API: * for example some applications check the `*_ASKPASS` environment variable (or another argument) and execute that application passing in some unstructured text, and receiving unstructured text (by unstructured text I mean it can't be reliably processed to automatically provide the correct password (by looking up in a database for example), and we can't input two elements at the same time as username and password); * Plan9's Factotum which exposes a pretty good protocol, but is not used in either Linux or other Linux targeting projects; (there is only a login prototype); * systemd's password agents, which come up with a more Linux-ish fs-oriented protocol, but which again doesn't offer any API proposal; Any ideas, proposals? Ciprian. P.S.: I'm interested in this because until now the only password manager that I can trust to use are GPG encrypted text files, which I'm decrypting when I need them, and then I copy paste the information manually. (Actually I've created recently a tool that generates X events to eliminate the copy pasting.) But I would be happier if there would be a more sane solution for this problem -- like PAM solves for user login.

[dev] The mysterious 31
In KR, chapter 6, section 6, there is a funtion called hash that hashes a
string, which will be stored in a linked list. The function in question is on
page 144, but here it is for those of you who don't have KR handy.
/* hash: form hash value for string s */
unsigned
hash(char *s)
{
unsigned hashval;
for(hashval = 0; *s != '\0'; s++)
hashval = *s + 31 * hashval;
return hashval % HASHSIZE;
}
So what is the purpose of the magic 31? The only thing that I think might be a
reference to what it may be for is the paragraph prior, which states
The hashing function, ..., adds each character value in the string to a
scrambled combination of the previous ones and returns the remainder
modulo the array size.
Does the magic 31 have to do with scrambling?
