Setup

First you need to setup pm for yourself

Procedure:

• Run pm init to initialize pm for your directory

There should be no output

• Run pm config -ps <password> to set your password for PM. It will ask you for your OLD PASSWORD
  • Now if you haven't configured your passowrd before, enter fetcher in the OLD PASSWORD INPUT which is the default password

NOTE: THIS STORES YOUR PASSWORD FOR PM AND DOES NOT INDICATE A PASSWORD FOR PASSWORD MANAGEMENT

• Now you are set up to use PM

Encryption:

pm encrypt {directory} {note(optional)}

For example:

pm encrypt C://Users//doge//Desktop//Office//files 'Welcome982' -n google

This makes a data_encr.dat file which consists the message 'Hello World' in the files folder located in Office folder present in your Desktop.

For using current directory, just provide current instead of the directory.

In the above example, 'google' is an ID that gives the encrypted data and identity.

You can even use --note instead of -n to add an ID

Giving an ID is completely optional, but highly recommended for every user. This helps you decrypt your messages easily

Decryption

There are two methods of decrypting/obtaining your passwords

SPECIFIC DECRYPTION

pm decrypt {directory} -n {note}

For example:

pm decrypt C://Users//arghy//Desktop//Office//files -n google

This gives you the stored password identified by google NOTE/ID.

For using current directory, just provide current instead of the directory.

MASS DECRYPTION

pm decryptf {directory} 

This gives you all of your stored passwords

pm decryptf C://Users//arghy//Desktop//Office//files

NOTE: EVERY DECRYPTION METHOD NEEDS YOUT PM PASSWORD, HENCE IF YOU HAVE NOT SETUP YOUR PM, DECRYPTION WONT WORK

CLEAR

pm clear {directory} cleans the data from data file
