Re: [PLUG] Password Mangers

[JP Vossen <jp@jpsdomain.org>]

I tried one of the "KeePass" Linux versions a few months ago, I'm not 
100% sure which one.  KeePass is .Net, which means Mono on Linux, and 
while you can make arguments both ways I don't really want Mono installed.

I found that version exceptionally ugly, and uninstalled all of it.

I use PasswordSafe, which was originally Windows but has been in Linux 
beta for years now, and has even made it into the Mint18 repos.  It is 
less cross-platform than some, but it works for me.

While I get the convenience of the various on-line and in-the-cloud 
tools, I'd personally never use one in a million years.  I'd never use 
the "automated" ones either.  PasswordSafe can do an "auto-type" but 
otherwise it's purely manual, and I like it like that.
