This memorisation of a vast number of passwords is the killer, of course, so writing all passwords down is a good idea. Why not record them in passwd.text? Then scrypt enc passwords.txt passwords.enc For access: scrypt dec passwords.enc and copy and paste. A password is required for decrypting passwords.enc. *M05o05m19m19a? would do nicely. Just a single password to remember. It couldn't get simpler. -- Brian.
