Thanks for this -- this is a wishlist item that I raised here on
December 28. Your patch is one solution to the problem, but I have to
question why you haven't made your "-m" option for "pass generate" work
the same way it does for "pass insert" (i.e., by reading the extra lines
from stdin rather than from command-line arguments). I think having two
different behaviours for the same command will lead to a lot of
confusion. (Also, why not provide an additional long option version
named "--multiline", as "pass insert" does?)
Regards,
Tristan
