Hi, I am guessing I'm using pass a bit differently than most, and keep something more like "information cards" than simple passwords in each file. For this reason I only show the content.
In an environment where my terminals may be viewed by others, I would prefer to not having my passwords listed in the scrollback buffer. The easy solution to this is to pipe the command through a pager like 'less'. However, it would be better if this would be automatic and I have patched the pass script to make use of the $PAGER variable - if it exists and contain something sensible. This might be interesting to more than me, so I attach the patch in the hope it, or some version of it, makes it into the official version. :-) -Are
