YAPET Description

A curses-based password encryption tool. YAPET is a text based password manager using the Blowfish encryption algorithm. Since it has a small footprint and very few dependencies, it is well suited for use on both desktop and server systems.The text based user interface allows to run YAPET easy and painlessly in a Secure Shell session. A companion utility called csv2yapet enables users to convert CSV files to YAPET files previously exported from other password managers. Here are some key features of "YAPET": · Blowfish encryption with 448 bits key using the OpenSSL library. · passwords are not kept clear text in memory. · doesn't depend on graphical user interfaces and their "dependency · hell" due to a text based user interface. · only dependent of two libraries: OpenSSL and curses/ncurses · locks the terminal on inactivity. · a utility to convert CSV files to the native YAPET format. · built-in password generator. What's New in This Release: · Fixed serious bug preventing exchange of YAPET files between 32/64 bit architectures. Please see the README file for more information. (fix for bug #18; http://bugs.guengel.ch/show_bug.cgi?id=18) * /dev/urandom is the default random number generator used for generating passwords (fix for bug #19; http://bugs.guengel.ch/show_bug.cgi?id=19) * The random number generator used for generating passwords can be selected in the ~/.yapet configuration file.
