For storing passwords, Slashdot reader eggegick has a simple, easy solution: “I use Vim to keep my passwords in an encrypted file.”
But what’s the easiest solution for people who don’t use Vim?
My wife is not a Linux geek like I am, so she’s using [free and open-source] KeePass. It’s relatively simple to install and use, but I seem to recall it used to be even much simpler… Does anybody know of a really simple password manager or encrypting notepad?
I’ve looked at a number of them, and they use Java or Javascript, or they involve an external web site, or they have way too many features, or they use an installation program. Or Windows
Defender objects to them.
