NAME

       yapet - text based password manager

SYNOPSIS

       yapet [[-c] | [-h] | [-V]] [[-i] | [-r {rcfile}]] [[-s] | [-S]] [-t {sec}] [filename]

DESCRIPTION

       yapet  provides  a  text  user  interface for storing passwords and associated information
       (referred to as password records) in  files  encrypted  on  disk.  A  password  record  is
       comprised of a record name, host name, user name, password, and comment. A master password
       is required to encrypt/decrypt the password records in  a  given  file.   yapet  does  not
       impose a limit of password records per file.

       Files  created  by  yapet always have the suffix .pet. Also, if a file is loaded using the
       command line, yapet appends the suffix .pet to the filename unless the  filename  includes
       this  suffix  already.  By  default, yapet refuses to load files not having a file mode of
       0600. This behavior can be changed by providing the -s option when starting yapet or using
       a configuration file (see yapet_config(5), and the section called “OPTIONS”).

       After  loading  a  file,  the  record name of each password record is displayed in a list.
       Existing password records can be opened by selecting them and pressing Enter. By  default,
       existing  password  records  are  opened  in  read-only  mode to avoid accidental changes.
       Pressing Ctrl+r toggles between read-only and edit mode.

       On terminals supporting colors, the password is hidden if the password record dialog is in
       read-only  mode.  The password can be made visible, by either going to edit mode (Ctrl+r),
       or by pressing Ctrl+t.

       yapet relies on OpenSSL for encryption and decryption of password records. The cipher  for
       encryption and decryption is Blowfish with a 448 bits key.

       Other features of yapet are:

       •   Screen  lock  after  a  certain amount of inactivity when password file is loaded (see
           also yapet_config(5) and the section called “OPTIONS”).

       •   Password records opened in read-only mode (default) hide the password.  Toggling  into
           edit mode reveals the password (see the section called “Password Record Dialog Keys”).

       •   Import of CSV files (see csv2yapet).

       •   Export of YAPET files to CSV files (see yapet2csv).

       •   Integrated password generator.

   Main Window Function Keys
       Following function keys are recognized in the main window:

       g
           Open the password generator.

       q
           Quit YAPET.

   Cursor Movement Keys
       Cursor movement, whether in clear text or password fields, is accomplished  by  using  the
       following keys:

       Left, Ctrl+b
           Moves the cursor one character to the left.

       Right, Ctrl+f
           Moves the cursor one character to the right.

       Home, Ctrl+a
           Moves the cursor to the beginning of the input field.

       End, Ctrl+e
           Moves the cursor to the end of the input field.

       Backspace
           Delete the character left of the cursor.

       Delete, Ctrl+d
           Delete the character under the cursor.

       Ctrl+k
           Delete all characters under and right of the cursor.

       Ctrl+u
           Delete all characters left of the cursor.

       Enter, Tab
           Focus the next widget.

       Shift+Tab
           Focus the previous widget.

   Password Record Dialog Keys
       Following  function  keys  are  recognized  in  the password record dialog, besides cursor
       movement keys (see the section called “Cursor Movement Keys”):

       Ctrl+r
           Toggle the password record dialog between read-only and edit mode. In read-only  mode,
           yapet hides the password (only supported on color terminals).

       Ctrl+t
           Toggle  between  hiding  and showing the password, without setting the password record
           dialog to edit mode (only supported on color terminals). Has no effect if the password
           record dialog is in edit mode.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -c
           Show copyright information.

       -h
           Print help text.

       -i
           Do not read the configuration file.

       -r rcfile
           Read  the  configuration  file  specified  by rcfile. If this option is not given, the
           default configuration file read is $HOME/.yapet unless -i is specified.

       -s
           Disable the check for the owner and file mode when loading files. Without this option,
           yapet  checks  password  files for having the same owner as the user running yapet and
           verifies that the file mode is strictly 0600. If one of these conditions are not  met,
           yapet refuses to load the file. Providing this options disables those checks and yapet
           will load files with owners other than the process  owner  of  yapet  and  file  modes
           different from 0600.

           New  files  saved while this option is active will have the file mode set according to
           umask(2).

       -S
           Enable the check for the owner and file mode when loading  files.  This  option  makes
           yapet  to  load  password files having the owner set to the process owner of yapet and
           the file mode strictly set to 0600 only. If one of these conditions are not met, yapet
           refuses to load the file.

           New files saved while this option is active will have the file mode set to 0600.

           This is the default mode.

       -t sec
           Set the timeout until the screen is locked to sec seconds. The minimum time allowed is
           10 seconds. If a smaller value is provided, the timeout will be set to 10 seconds.

           Default: 10 min.

       -V
           Show version of yapet.

       filename
           The file to open upon invocation of yapet. If the file  does  not  exist,  yapet  asks
           whether it should be created.

           Files created by yapet always have the suffix .pet.

FILES

       $HOME/.yapet
           The  per-user configuration file. If existing, options are read from this file but can
           be overridden by the command line options.

           Processing of this file can be disabled by invoking yapet with the -i option.

           Refer to the yapet_config(5) for an explanation of the per-user configuration file.

ENVIRONMENT

       LC_MESSAGES
