Hi Danylo, This is an excellent idea! Your implementation will probably not be added this way since it will add two more dependencies to pass (timeout & less). However you could easily add it as an extension: https://www.passwordstore.org/#extensions. This would enable bash completion again AFAIK. Another option to get bash completion is to add something like this to your bashrc: if type _pass &> /dev/null; then complete -o default -o nospace -F _pass passless; fi;
A third option is to implement this functionality using bash scripting and sleep. I'll see if I can come up with something. No promises though :-) Kind regards, Timmo Verlaan On Thu, May 24, 2018, at 14:21, Danylo Hlynskyi wrote: > There is a little usecase that I use for credit cards secrets. > Basically, I save credit card details and secrets as a multiline > password.
