Sala lets you store passwords and other bits of sensitive plain-text information to encrypted files on a directory hierarchy. The information is protected by GnuPG’s symmetrical encryption.
Basic usage
Passwords are stored in a directory hierarchy, each file containing one secret.
Commands:
- sala init
Initialize a password store
- sala get FILE...
Read secret(s)
- sala set FILE...
Create or modify secret(s)
- sala FILE...
Read or modify, depending on whether the first file exists or not
For more information, see sala(1) and http://www.digip.org/sala/.
