Description : command-line application for managing encrypted passwords
pwsafe is a *nix command-line program that manages encrypted password
databases.
Features:
- Pure command-line operation if desired (good for remote access over ssh)
or can interact with X11 selection & clipboard.
- Portable, endianess-clean, misaligned-access-free C++.
- Compatible with CounterPane's PasswordSafe Win32 program versions 2.x
and 1.x.
pwsafe was in Debian until recently, but removed since it was orphaned.
I contacted the current maintainer who was willing to sponsor uploads by
a user willing to take of maintenance work.
