11

OPTIONS

13       -f filename
14              Use a different file to store fpm data. Must  include  directory

18

USAGE

20       launchers
21              Arbitrary  launchers  can  be defined, in order to automatically
22              launch progammes with parameters from the password entry, eg:
23
24                 xterm -title $u@$a -e ssh -X $a -l $u.
25
26              Possible variables are:
27
28                 $a - an arbitrary argument associated with the password entry
29                 - typically a hostname.
30
31                 $u - the username associated with the password entry
32
33                 $p - the password associated with the password entry
34
35       on-the-fly categories
36              Each password entry can belong to a category, which is generated
37              just by naming it in at least one entry.
38
39       password generation
40              fpm2 will generate passwords for you. Up to 24 characters with a
41              boolean  choices  for lowercase, uppercase, numbers, symbols and
42              ambigous characters (eg. `O` and `0`).
43

SECURITY

45       Using the $p variable means that your password ends up in .bash_history
46       in addition to being visible by ps aux!
47
48       In  order  to  work around this problem conveniently fpm2 can have your
49       password copied to your primary selection, so that you may easily paste
50       it where needed. Then your password should be as secured as your trans‐
51       port.
