pwsafe is a command line password database program for Unix. It is compatible with Counterpane's Win32 Password Safe software. It can also copy the passwords into the X selection and clipboard, but it doesn't open a visible window. The encrypted password database uses the same format as PasswordSafe 2.x (1.[7-9].x is also supported). The database is encrypted with blowfish, and a single passphrase decrypts it all.

Recent releases
Release Notes: This release added compatability with PasswordSafe 2.0 databases (including support for groups), the ability to export and merge databases, and some small usability enhancements requested by users. Build issues on RedHat Fedora Core 3 and 4, SUSE, and OS X Tiger were fixed.
Release Notes: This release adds the ability to quit with a keystroke, and fixes build issues on Solaris, *BSD, and Mac OS X.
Release Notes: The getopt_long() and readline() dependencies are gone. A broken readline.h is handled better now. 'Use default password? (y/n)' has been fixed; you can now answer No and have it stick.
Release Notes: Segfaults in the secure allocator of release 0.1.3 were fixed. A 'make check' target was added. A known-good database, named test.dat, was added. A selftest script was added so you can verify that your pwsafe is built correctly. The --with-openssl-dir=dir and --with/without-readling options were added to ./configure.
Pwsafe 3 0 4
Release Notes: This release is feature complete. Strings and cryptographic keys are kept in unswappable memory. The random number generator is seeded from ~/.rnd (as well as the usual /dev/urandom). The autoconf and build have been tweaked to work on a wider variety of OSes and gcc versions, from Red Hat 6.2 egcs-2.91 to Debian unstable gcc 3.3.3.

Password Safe is a free and open-sourcepassword manager program for use with Microsoft Windows.
A beta version is also available for Ubuntu (including the Kubuntu and Xubuntu derivatives), Debian and FreeBSD operating systems. A Java-based version is also available on SourceForge. On its page, users can find links to unofficial releases running under Android, BlackBerry, and other mobile operating systems.
History[edit]
The program was initiated by Bruce Schneier at Counterpane Systems,[2] and is now hosted on SourceForge and developed by a group of volunteers.[3]
Design[edit]
Screenflick 2 7 42 cr2. After filling in the master password the user has access to all account data entered and saved previously. The data can be organized by categories, searched, and sorted based on references which are easy for the user to remember.[4] The key combination Ctrl+C copies the password of a selected account into the clipboard, Ctrl+U copies user ID. The program can be set to minimize automatically after a period of idle time and clears the clipboard. It is possible to compare and synchronize two different password databases.

Password management[edit]
Stored passwords can be sectioned into groups and subgroups in a tree structure.
Changes to entries can be tracked, including a history of previous passwords, the creation time, modification time, last access time, and expiration time of each password stored. Text notes can be entered with the password details.
Import and export[edit]
The password list can be exported to various file formats including TXT, XML and previous versions of Password Safe. Password Safe also supports importing these files
Password Safe supports importing TXT and CSV files which were exported from KeePass version 1.x (V1). KeePass version 2.x (V2) allows databases to be exported as a KeePass V1 database, which in turn can be imported to Password Safe.[needs update]
Password Safe cannot directly import a XML file exported by KeePass V1 or V2, as the fields are too different. However, the Help file provides instructions for processing an exported XML file with one of multiple XSLT files (included with Password Safe) which will produce a Password Safe compatible XML file that can then be imported.[needs update] 【limit free】jumper 2 0 6 – second dock for desktop.

File encryption[edit]
Password Safe can encrypt any file using a key derived from a passphrase provided by the user through the command-line interface.
Password generator[edit]
The software features a built-in password generator that generates random passwords. The user may also designate parameters for password generation (length, character set, etc.), creating a 'Named Password Policy' by which different passwords can be created.
Cryptography[edit]
Pwsafe Extension
The original Password Safe was built on Bruce Schneier's Blowfish encryption algorithm. Rony Shapiro implemented Twofish encryption along with other improvements to the 3.xx series of Password Safe.[5] The keys are derived using an equivalent of PBKDF2 with SHA-256 and a configurable number of iterations, currently set at 2048.[6][7]
Reception[edit]
Reviewers have highlighted the program's simplicity as its best feature.[8]
