About
gpgpwd is a simple password-manager for the Unix command-line. It manages a GnuPG-encrypted list of passwords and usernames, and allows you to easily retrieve, change and add to that file as needed. It generates secure random passwords that you can use, allowing you to have one "master password" (for your gpg key) that you can use to unlock unique random passwords for each website or service you use.Key features:
- An intuitive command-line interface with simple commands like
get,add,removeandchange - Respects your privacy by also encrypting the names of your passwords, not just the passwords themselves
- Integrates directly with git, making synchronization between machines easy
- Can automatically copy the passwords to your clipboard when running under X11 (most Linux distributions and *BSDs)
- Corrects typos when searching and matches partial names (and optionally supports perl regular expressions for power users)
- Grants you peace of mind, with the knowledge that should a website you use leak your password all of your other logins are still safe
