I'm using the sunaku wmiirc setup, with some modifications, from github. I tend to restart/re-run wmiirc a lot, as I make modifications. I'm running an up-to-date Gentoo Linux system, with a pretty basic setup. I had some X updates, so I decided to finally log out, and try to diagnose an issue

[dev] suckless password manager

2009-12-10 Thread anonymous
Currently I have only found one simple password manager: pwsafe. It can be used from command line, can work with X clipboard and uses good cryptography I think. But it is not supported now and it's code depends on readline, autotools, written in C++ and consists of one .cpp file. As I can see

It can't work with X, but use of GPG instead of creating new encryption scheme is interesting. So the only thing to implement is secure use of X11 clipboard and integration with GPG or some PGP library. Perhaps you could alter the script to pipe the nth line into xsel, or change the format of

Actually, I think passwordmanagers are not secure. All your passwords are just as strong as your PM encryption. I have an mnemoc/algorithm which enables me to generate a quite strong password (without penpaper) which depends on the name of the webpage and/or username I use there. On Dec 10, 2009

What timeout -t affects? Looks like nothing changed. For -t 5000 i can retrieve PRIMARY after 5 seconds, before 5 seconds and at any time. You're right, perhaps it's an xsel bug? Perhaps you could echo password | xsel -i sleep 0.5 xsel -c # or -d? Maybe xclip offers more

Maybe xclip -l 1 -i could do the work. BTW I have just simplified the script even more (using umask instead of chmod's). Last changes are in the hg tip. http://nibble.develsec.org/hg/toys/file/a12b1de0a2cc/passman On Thu, 10 Dec 2009 23:46:31 + Rob robpill...@gmail.com wrote: What
