pw is a simple GPG-based secret store. It's designed for storing passwords or other secrets, using GPG to encrypt them for security. It relies on GPG for all the crypto, including relying on gpg-agent to do any key storage or UI.

# Installation
go get github.com/nelhage/pw

# Prompt for a password to save as "google.com"
pw add google.com

# Retrieve that password and print to stdout
pw get google.com

# Copy that password to the clipboard
pw copy google.com

# Generate a new password, save it as "reddit.com", and copy it to the clipboad
pw generate reddit.com

# List passwords
pw ls

pw can be configured via command-line options, or by specifying the same options in ~/.pw, in the form <option> = <value>. Supported configuration options are:

• root -- The root directory of the password store. Defaults to ~/pw.
• gpgkey -- The GPG key ID to encrypt passwords to. Can be in any form understood by gpg -r, but a full key fingerprint is suggested for maximum explicitness.
• cmd.copy -- A command to use for copying text. This command will be invoked with the text to copy on STDIN. Defaults to xclip -i on Linux and pbcopy on OS X.
• cmd.generate -- A command that should return a freshly-generated password when invoked. Defaults to pwgen 12 1 -s.

To enable tab-completion for pw, simply add the following line to your .bashrc:

complete -C 'pw -do-completion' pw

Completion support is currently only implemented/tested for bash. Patches or bug reports in other shells are welcome.
