Hello,

    I am sorry I received no feedback on this thread because maybe I somehow missed a few e-mails from the list. Has it had any sequels? Or maybe on freenode?

    If I actually write a patch myself, how would I test it and submit it?

    Cheers to y'all :)

Hello, and thank you for supporting this must-have password utility :)

    I have run into a problem described at

        https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47154078

    and

        https://stackoverflow.com/users/2347483/phylogenesis

    offered a solution.

    To be short: `pass` uses `bash`'s `read` to retrieve a password typed by user.     As a consequence, every whitespace is trimmed before and after the password : http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/001#Trimming
    However, these whitespaces may be significant to user.

    If we want to fix this, this line

https://git.zx2c4.com/password-store/tree/src/password-store.sh#n443

    should be run with a `IFS=` environment, then `$password` on line 447 should be quoted, according to phylogenesis.


    What does pass development team thinks of this case ? Would you consider it a bug? Or maybe an option?


    This is it. Thank you for your patience :)
