Having shorter memory span than a goldfish I realized a long time ago that I
could never keep track on all user names and passwords to all the various sites
where I had registered.
The logical solution is to keep a text file with all the user names and passwords.
Beeing a bit paranoid I don't like the idea of having that type of information
on a non-encrypted file.
The simplest and fastest solution for me was to quickly put together a small application
that stores my user names and passwords on an encrypted file.
General Features
When the application is started the first time it opts for an password.
This is where you decide what initial password you want to use.
The password can be changed later on in the settings/password menu.
Once started the application is quite straightforward.
You can add/delete records.
Each record consist of:
- a name
- a URL, in case you want to store the address to the site
- a username
- a password
- a description
By clicking on the small icon next to the URL field a browser will be started and redirected to that address.
All your data is stored in an encrypted file
