Password Safe

Hi,

This is to announce the second BETA release of version 3.17 of PasswordSafe
(the first release was announced only to the passwordsafe-users and
passwordsafe-devel mailing lists - apologies to folks who get this
announcement in duplicate). This release differs from the first beta in that
a few bugs have been fixed, and the Add and Edit dialog boxes have been
changed.

The new features in this version are a bit more complex than the last few
releases, so we've decided to release it gradually, depending on your
feedback. Also, we've prepared a short (6 question) user survey, and would
appreciate it if you could spend a couple of minutes and fill it out. The
survey is at:
http://p.sf.net/passwordsafe/3_17BetaSurvey

Here's a list of the new features:

[1533621, 1722481] There's a new, "Browse+" action that combines browsing to
an entry's URL and entering the username, password, etc. in a single
operation. Note that this is a new feature, and is known to have problems
with some sites and browsers.
[1405326] Add new field 'Run Command' to allow arbitrary commands, such as
terminal emulators, etc. to be executed via Ctrl+R or from the Edit menu. 
[] Allow users to set their own shortcut keys for menu items. Select via
Manage->Options->Shortcuts.
[1954166] New preference to word wrap the Notes field in Add & Edit. Also,
ability to override this and showing the notes by right-click context menu.
[] Implement "Find Up" via clicking Find toolbar button with Shift key down
or pressing 'Shift+F3' for repeat find up.

In addition, the Chinese, Russian and German translations of PasswordSafe
have been updated and bundled with the distribution.

The release may be downloaded from
http://pwsafe.org/tmp/pwsafe-3.17-beta2.exe (installer)
http://pwsafe.org/tmp/pwsafe-3.17-beta2-bin.zip (zip file with executable
and related files)

SHA-1 sums are:
0fe15b22b1afd1162523e0d8645ce8246bbf6a20 *pwsafe-3.17-beta2.exe
4bb48989d23bca3fe15bc4277d63296a84fa8deb *pwsafe-3.17-beta2-bin.zip

PGP signatures are available as well:

Hi,

This is to announce the prerelease of version 3.18 of PasswordSafe.

The new features in this version are a bit more complex than the last few
releases, so we've decided to release it gradually, starting with the
members of this mailing list.

Here's a list of the new features:

[2793283] Allow entry to override doubleclick setting.
[2793280] Browse+Autotype added to configurable double click actions.
[] Implement Virtual Keyboards for multilingual passphrase entry.
[] DragBar now has ToolTips to inform user of its use.
[] User can close the currently open database via the System Tray menu.

In addition, we've replace the 'New' icon set with icons based on
famfamfam's silk set, and reworked the Add and Edit dialogs into Property
Pages, which should be a bit less confusing for the casual user.

Note that the help files and non-English support have NOT been fully updated
in this version.

Please let us know what you think of the new release, either via the forums
(https://sourceforge.net/forum/?group_id=41019) or by writing me directly
(https://sourceforge.net/sendmessage.php?touser=370700).

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.19. This release
has a couple of nice new features, as described below, some bug fixes, as
well as support for French (NEW!), German (full), Swedish (full), Russian
(partial), Chinese (partial), Polish (partial), and Spanish (partial). If
you're interested in supporting your language, please let me know. Thanks to
Karlo, Bjorn, pm_kan and Francois for their translation efforts and feedback
on this release! Many thanks to DK for his work and patience, and thanks to
Vasily and gillum for their contributions to this release.

New Features for 3.19
================
[2832983] The Edit/View dialog now shows the details of the entry being
edited/viewed in its title caption (This is updated when saving the entry).
[2832810] A new email field has been added, supporting email headers 'to',
'subject', 'cc', 'bcc' and 'body' (per RFC 2368 - see online help for
details). If this field is not empty, it is used instead of the URL field
even if that contains an email address.
Note: whereas the URL field had to have the 'mailto:' prefix to denote an
email address rather than a URL, the email field must not contain this
prefix.
[] PasswordSafe now handles Vista (and later) logoff, shutdown & restart
more gracefully, giving the user now has more time to save a modified
database.
[] Add new AutoType special fields '\wnnn' and '\Wnnn'. Unlike '\d', which
sets the delay between sending each subsequent character, '\w' & '\W'
introduces a one-time delay where they appear.  For '\w', the value 'nnn' is
in milli-seconds. For '\W', this specifies seconds. Note: Max. value is 999s
(16m 39s), during which time PasswordSafe will be unresponsive while it
waits the specified time. Also supported via the Run Command $a command.
[] Add menu item to copy the Run Command to the clipboard.
[] Support Run Command and Double-Click Action (and email) fields in
Filters.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.19
===========================
[] Changing the Security option to lock Password Safe when the workstation
is locked, no longer requires a restart of Password Safe to come into
effect.
[] Due to the French keyboard not supporting the key '-' in an accelerator,
the shortcut for "Password Subset" has been changed from "Ctrl + -" to "Ctrl
+ B". Please do not allocate "Ctrl + -" to any shortcut if you will be using
a French keyboard.
[] If a dialog is open (e.g. Add, Edit, Options etc.) and Password Safe is
minimized, the Close and Exit options are no longer in the System Tray
context menu. The user must first Restore the application and close the
dialog before being able to close the database or exit the program.
[] If preferences stored in the database are changed, the user will be asked
if they want to save them in the database when closing the database or
application even if none of the entries have been changed.
[] The preference to Lock the Database after a certain amount of idle time
has changed from being a global parameter affecting all databases opened by
the user to be specific to each database.

Bugs fixed in 3.19
=============
[2865116] Status-Bar message now correctly states "Password Copied" when
doing a "Run Command".
[2865116] Status-Bar message now updated when using the keyboard arrows to
transverse entries in Tree and List views.
[2856750] The Password Policy now correctly displayed in List View, when
selected.
[2856051] Changes to database preferences are no longer lost upon minimize.
[2856410] The "Run Command" menu entry is no longer greyed out for Shortcuts
to base entries with a Run Command.
[2851848] Mouse double-click interval removed from Virtual Keyboard to allow
multiple virtual keys to be entered quickly.
[2850907] Password field no longer cleared after focus change.
[2842700] No longer crashes when using a French keyboard.
[2192490, 2840534] Multiple desktops now handled correctly for Windows XP
and later system.
[2836569] Correct password data now copied from Edit dialog using 'Smart
Labels'
[2832991] Double-click action display in the Status Bar now shows correct
value for entries that have overriden the current default.
[2820260] Fix password expiry interval processing during Edit.
[2818653] Password expiry interval now correctly exported to XML and
displayed during Edit, if present.
[2813295] 'Browse + Autotype' system tray menu items fixed - thanks to
Vasily for reporting and sending the patches for this.
[2085058] Old (1.x) format databases now closed correctly.
[] Fixed problem with viewing a shortcut in read-only mode - thanks to
gillum for reporting and helping track this down.
[] Fix crash when using External Editor on Notes field.
[] Password verification field not set when editing/viewing an alias entry
and the password is hidden.
[] Enter key works again in initial dialog if browse button used to select a
database. 
[] AutoType by an alias now has correct password and its own notes data
rather than '[Alias]' and its base's notes data, respectively.
[] Run command no longer truncates the first field if it is within double
quotes.
[] Duplicate entry now duplicates double-click action of original as well.
[] Double-click on a shortcut entry now executes the action of its base.
[] Drag & Drop of entries with explicit double-click action values between
different databases now works. 
[] Browse to URL from an Alias entry now puts the correct password in the
clipboard.
[] Text import no longer overwrites entry's RunCommand with double-click
action value.
[] Tidy up item order in Edit menu and right-click context menu.

Hi,

Due to an error in the release process, the wrong versions of non-English
support libraries were included in the 3.20 release.

The files have been updated and uploaded to SourceForge, replacing the
previous release.

You only need to download version 3.20 again if you're running PasswordSafe
under the following localized versions of Windows:
Chinese, French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian, Spanish, Swedish.
All other users are unaffected.

The updated sha1 checksums are:

[2616175] Allows user to retry finding the original database if not
successfully found the first time.
[] Undo/Redo of changes to the currently open database. Any change to the
database can now be undone and redone, as long as the database is open. This
is similar to the undo/redo feature available in most word processors, and
is activated the same way (Ctrl-Z for undo, Ctrl-Y for redo, or via the Edit
menu).
[] New Synchronize feature (subset of the current Merge function) to allow
changes in the fields of entries of two databases to be synchronised.
Entries with identical Group names, Titles and User names are compared when
syncing. The database selected to be synchronised with the current open
database is now always in read-only mode i.e. Synchronisation is
uni-directional and only entries in the currently open database can be
modified.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.21
====================================
[] When comparing databases, the "other" selected database is now always
opened in read-only mode.

Bugs fixed in 3.21
==================
[2941828] In Add & Edit, changes to the Password Policy take effect
immediately; pressing the Generate button will create a password according
to the new policy, without having to save and re-open the entry.
[2940712] Dragging a group now drags along all its descendants.
[2931428] Password history now displayed correctly in View/Edit.
[2918306, 2816066, 2798788, 2446052, 2837591, 2917066, ...] Re-instate
AutoType via shortcut and when an entry has been selected via the Find
Toolbar.
[2921935] Dragbar now works in List view without needing the mouse to
activate.
[2918849] Fixed icon no longer appearing in taskbar when locking due to
workstation lock and terminal services running.
[2916338] "Edit Base entry" now works for Alias entries as well as for
Shortcuts.
[2913440] Copy/Send Email menu items now correctly activated if email field
is set or 'mailto:' used in URL field.
[2912177] Adding Groups via right-click menu now works again under default
configuration.
[2894100] PasswordSafe window no longer creeps down the screen if the
Windows  taskbar is at the top of the screen.
[2818401] AutoType backspace field ('\b') now honoured in both "AutoType"
and "Browse To + AutoType" consistently.
[2431438] When unable to find a previous database via the recently opened
databases on the File menu and the user is given the option to open a
different database or create a new one.
[1751462] After Find Toolbar Advanced dialog is used, the previous Find
results are now reset.
[] Finally fix issues running under pre-XP versions of Windows.
[] Fix issue when changing the displayed columns in List View and then
switching to Tree View.

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.22. This release
has a couple of nice new features, as described below, some bug fixes, as
well as support for:
Danish (full), French (full), German (full), Swedish (full), Russian (full),
Chinese (partial), Polish (partial), and Spanish (partial).
(If you're interested in supporting your language, please let me know.)

Thanks to Rejmond, Karlo, Bjorn, pm_kan, freedoctor and Francois for their
translation efforts and feedback on this release.
Many thanks to DK for his work and patience, and of course thanks to all the
users who provide feedback, bug reports, suggestions and the occasional
donation...


New Features for 3.22
=====================
[] Support for Danish has been added - thanks to Rejmond for his effort in
translating!
[2983775] Recently Used Entries are now saved in the database header and so
are "persistent".  The current Windows user interface limits this to a
maximum of the last 25 entries accessed.
[2980609] Allow date filters to use relative dates
[2979411] A single entry can now be exported to a text or XML file via the
Edit menu or right-click context menu.
[2957185] Add Synchronize function to the menu options during review of the
results of a Compare database operation.
[] Validation of databases can now be performed via the Manage menu as well
as via the command line flag '-v'. When executed via the menu, it is very
similar to opening a new database in that the current open database is
closed and the selected database is validated during the open process.
[] Allow user to select external editor for Notes field in Add/Edit dialog.
[] Add entry size to the available filters to be able view entries.
[] Warn users during database open and entry import if there are entries
with large text fields (e.g. Notes) that cannot be fully displayed and may
be truncated if edited.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.22
====================================
[] Preferences are now saved in the 'normal' per-user directory under
Windows. Existing installations will use current preferences, but users can
migrate to the new location via Manage->Options->System->Migrate
PasswordSafe configuration to user directory.
[] New databases will be created by default in "My Safes" directory under
"My Documents".

Bugs fixed in 3.22
==================
[3004446] Deleting a group of entries works again.
[2994118] Swedish version no longer crashes when checking for latest
version.
[2990734] Changing either whether password history is kept and deleting
currently saved history now activates the OK Button.
[2990609] Clicking to rename entries is now disabled when database is
read-only.
[2984527] Database preferences (including the Idle Timer setting) now
retained during a locking minimize to the System Tray.
[2977941] The password expiry date is now updated during edit if the
password is changed either via the Generate button or by the user manually
editing it.
[2977045] Can now make password expiration date any value from the current
date.
[2962916] Save toolbar button only enabled if database is R/W and has been
changed since last saved.
[2962847] Fix password length checking to be between 4 and 1024 during menu
Generate Password option & Password Policy setting as per previous releases.
[2960709] Entry selected prior to workstation locking is reselected on being
restored after unlocking the workstation.
[2957933] Ensure that AutoType delay and wait times are not impacted by
numeric characters from any entry field substitution.
[2951871] Shortcut related menu items now returned to the Edit menu and the
"Run Command", "Browse to URL", "Browse to URL + Autotype" and "Send email"
functions now work again, when a Shortcut entry is selected.
[2897661, 2779654] Group expand/collapse state restored after the database
is Locked, Minimized or "AutoType with Minimize" and then Restored.
[] Use of External Editor on Notes field from Edit dialog now activates
Apply and OK buttons.
[] Fix errors if importing an XML file with entries with duplicate unique
IDs (UUID elements).
[] Remove "Confirm Deletion of Entries" checkbox from theMisc. Options page.
New support for Undo/Redo made this unnecessary. Users are always asked to
confirm the deletion of Groups or entries that have aliases or shortcuts.

New Features for 3.23

====================================
[3026944] Confirm on Delete option has been re-instated.

Bugs fixed in 3.23

named aliases.
[3013199] PasswordSafe no longer hangs when trying to read preferences

Add/Edit.
[3010541, 3013981, 3011972] Fixed crash when locked and the user

including when Windows goes into Standby/Hibernate is now re-selected when
the database is later displayed.

Hi,

In addition to the regular bug fixes and improvements to PasswordSafe, we've
been working on a couple of other things that we'd like to announce:

1. PasswordSafe for Linux Beta
This is a port of the same 'core' cryptographic code wrapped around a new,
portable,  user interface (wxWidgets). What this means is that databases
created with the Windows version of PasswordSafe are fully compatible with
the Linux port, and vice versa.
Many thanks to Saurav, the lead developer for the Linux version, for his
time, effort and patience.

Ubuntu users can download the beta from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/Linux-BETA/passwordsafe-u
buntu-0.1-1.deb/download
Debian users should download from this link:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/Linux-BETA/passwordsafe-d
ebian-0.1-1.deb/download
Please read the release notes (README.LINUX) for details on how to install
this on your machine.

2. PasswordSafe2Go
As you may know, I've been offering a version of PasswordSafe tailored for
the U3 disk-on-key system. The main advantage of this product is that it
packs PasswordSafe and your database on a disk-on-key, making it very
convenient for use across several machines.
PasswordSafe2Go is a similar product, tailored for use with any disk-on-key,
not only U3-enabled devices.
Although the 'regular' PasswordSafe can be used on a disk-on-key, both of
these products are more suitable for non-expert users who wish to run
PasswordSafe from a disk-on-key.
You can purchase PasswordSafe2Go from
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2880062
and Passwordsafe for U3 from
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2031906

Cheers,

  Rony

Are there plans for an RPM package for RedHat, Fedora, Suse, etc.?

If someone can point me to the Linux source files, I will make a tar
ball that can easily be installed somewhere like /opt.

Hi,

It's been a while since our last release, partially because no major bugs
have popped up in 3.23, and also because we've been busy on several variants
(nothing to announce - yet).

Anyway, 3.24 is mainly a bugfix release, with some minor new features, the
most visible being:
1. Groups can now be duplicated (New entry in popup menu when a group is
selected)
2. Advanced dialog settings are now persistent across sessions. In terms of
GUI, this means that the "Advanced..." button has been replaced by a
checkbox, which is marked if there are advanced criteria defined. This is in
the Merge, Compare, Export to Text, Export to XML, Synchronize and
Find dialog boxes.

The Linux versions have also made nice progress, definitely worth checking
out!

Thanks to dk, sauravg and pm_kan for their work on this release!

I'd really like to get this version out sooner rather than later.

Hi,

It seems that 3.24 had a nasty last-minute bug that crept in, causing it to
crash when unlocking or switching databases. The good news is that this was
promptly reported, and a fix is now available in release 3.24.1.
Thanks to donw146, gillum, john886 and mrttoo for reporting the problem in
an effective manner, and to DK for his quick fix.
(The problem was Windows-specific - the Linux version is unaffected)

Release 3.24.1 replaces 3.24, and can be downloaded from:

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.25. This release
has a couple of nice new features, as described below, some bug fixes, as
well as support for:
Chinese (full), Dutch (partial), French (full), German (full), Korean
(partial), Russian (full), Swedish (full), Danish (partial), Polish
(partial), and Spanish (full).
(If you're interested in supporting your language, please let me know.)

As of this release, we're unlinking the release cycle of the Linux Beta
versions from the Window releases. See the end of this announcement for more
information regarding the Linux releases.

Thanks to:
- Bert, Bjorn, Francois, Fred, freedoctor, Jose, Karlo, Kees, pm_kan,
poserpro and Seunggyun for their translation efforts and feedback on this
release,
- The PasswordSafe testers for vetting this release,
- DK for his work and patience,
- Sauravg and pm_kan for their work on the Linux beta,
- All the users who provide feedback, bug reports, suggestions and the
occasional donation...

New Features for 3.25
=======================
Dutch installation instructions thank to Kees, and a first (incomplete)
Dutch translation of the application thank to Bert, Kees and Fred.
[] Korean texts in the application and installer program thanks to
Seunggyun.
[] Poserpro has provided Traditional Chinese texts for the installer
program.
[] New View menu option: Show entries with Expiry. This is useful for
displaying entries with passwords that are expired or about to expire.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.25
======================================
[3171962] The password expiration warning mechanism now checks for
expiration daily. The display of expired and almost-expired entries has been
redesigned, allowing users to update the entry directly. When an expired
password is changed, the expiry date will be cleared unless there is a
recurring password expiry interval, in which case a new expiry date will be
calculated.
[3131945] Double-clicking on the system tray icon when PasswordSafe is not
minimized now brings it to front, instead of minimizing.
[3131935] Rename of an entry or group in the Tree View can now only be
performed via the Rename shortcut (default value F2), using the Edit menu or
the right-click context menu. Edit in place by double clicking the entry is
no longer allowed as, most of the time, this was not the desired action.
[] Filtered views are now updated when an entry's edited, e.g., if an entry
is edited such that it no longer satisfies the filter's criteria, it will be
removed from the display. 
[] The Russian online help has been totally rewritten and updated, thanks to
pm_kan.
[] pm_kan has updated the Russian texts.
[] The Spanish texts have been updated thanks to Jose.
[] Karlo has updated the German texts.
[] Francois has updated the French texts.
[] Bjorne has updated the Swedish version.
[] freedoctor has updated the Chinese texts.


Bugs fixed in 3.25
====================
[3194472] Fix new group creation location. When a Group is selected, then
selecting 'Add Group' from the Edit menu or from the context menu displayed
by right clicking on that Group, the new group will be a child of the
selected group. However, when using the context menu displayed on right
clicking on 'white space' below the last entry/group displayed, the group
will be created at the topmost level. 
[3165889] No longer crashes if search starts with Shift-Enter (search
backwards).
[3148701] Windows installer will now refuse to install on Win2K, referring
user to last supported version on that OS (3.18).
[3115760] Window view is now saved and restored if the user uses the Windows
"Show Desktop" feature.
[] No longer crashes when doing an Undo after a Merge.
[] Ensure Undo/Redo honour the changes to the display of the original
change.


The U3 and PasswordSafe2Go versions will be updated soon and available from
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2031906
and
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2880062

New Features for 3.26
=======================
[3288341] Autotype has been added to the DragBar. Drag the image to an input
area on another Window (e.g., Browser) and PasswordSafe will begin Autotype
from there. 
[3286721] User can now toggle between read-only and read-write modes via a
menu item or by double-clicking on the current R-O or R/W indicator in the
Status Bar.
[3203152] The displayed language can now be changed via the new
Manage->Change Language menu.
[3065111] Add/Edit now displays both the Application's (PasswordSafe) and
the current database's default Autotype string (if set via Manage->Options).
[2964804, 1855389] The user can specify the list of symbols valid for
password generation, and can override this for any particular entry (except
when EasyVision or  pronounceable passwords are chosen).
[1831893, 1471134] Added Autotype code "\s" to send "Shift+Tab" (back tab).
[] Allow user to control copying of the password to clipboard when
performing "Browse to URL" via an option in Options->Security. This is a
database option i.e., you can have different setting for different
databases.
[] Support importing of TXT, CSV files and XML exported from KeePass V1 and
KeePass V2 XML files. Note that KeePass V2's export in the V1 format is does
not conform to their own format as specified by their V1 product and can not
be imported. Please review our Help file for the settings in KeePass
required during their export. 

Changes to Existing Features in 3.26
======================================
[] New image on start-up dialog - courtesy of user Prinz_Eugen.
[] Polish installation texts added thanks to Michal Niklas.
[] An entry's password expiry date is set or cleared directly rather than
using the Set and Clear buttons after changing values.
[] The default password generation policy is now for 12 character passwords
that include symbol characters (previous default was 8, no symbols).
[] Unknown database header fields and unknown entry fields are no longer
exported when a database is exported to XML as there is no mechanism to
re-check them during import. Exporting to XML and then importing to a new
database can be used to remove these unknown fields.
[] Date time fields, when exported to XML, now are in the W3C dateTime
standard format instead of PasswordSafe's.  This release can import XML
files with date time fields in either of these forms. The next release will
only be able to process the W3C standard.
[] Fully support importing of TXT files exported from KeePass V1 including
the Group Tree structure, URL and date time fields. Please review the online
help for more details.

Bugs fixed in 3.26
====================
[3325116] Users can no longer select an entry via the System Tray icon's
Recent Entry menu if the display has not been restored after minimize or
unlock.
[3306357, 3062632, 2888026] User preference changes are now correctly saved.
This includes allowing user to change database preferences when the database
is read-only.
[3303018] Filters with quotes in their name are now correctly exported,
imported and displayed in the Manage Filters dialog.
[3301904] Export XML, export Text and the export of filters functions now
process file names and paths containing non-Latin characters.  In addition,
missing directories in the specified path are created as neeeded.
[3234204] PasswordSafe no longer exits if the command flag is set to "-s
<databasename>".
[3088187] The correct entry in List View is now used for Autotype when using
the keyboard to select the entry when PasswordSafe first opens.
[] Controls in Edit are now disabled if entry is protected.
[] Compare databases now correctly compares the 'Protect' and password
policy 'symbols' fields of entries.

The U3 and PasswordSafe2Go versions will be updated soon and available from
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2031906
and

Hi,

It's that time again - another release is due out soon, this time both
Windows and Linux versions. We're continuing our incremental changes policy,
nothing major here. Main visible changes for the Windows version are:

- Users can add name and description in the database Properties
- Shift+Left Mouse and Double-click actions are now user-configurable.
- Forms automatically "shape shift" when displayed on a Netbook to
accommodate short screen.

The Linux version is continually improving too, lots of small changes, most
of them 'under the hood'. If anyone wants to test 64bit versions of the
Linux build, please let me know.


Thanks to dk and sauravg for their work on this release!

I'm planning on releasing this to the public towards the end of October,
depending on feedback from testers and help from translators, of course.

access to the source html.

Cheers,

Just a side-note: Thumbs up for your efforts!
After my personal migration to "Windows 11.04" a few months ago, I would
have dropped pwsafe without a perspective..

Keep up the good work! I'm sure there is a live after Windows7 :p
One note: I guess every Ubuntu-user is able to do "make; make install"
but 0,01% of the windows-users can: you'll simply have to provide more
binaries!

Michael

P.S.: have you ever thought about Qt? As an User *and* developer between
all chairs I love it ;)
As I love pwsafe I thought many times to start that but hey, makes no
sense if no-one shares that..
Any pros for?

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your kind words.

Regarding Qt: Technically, I like it a lot. When I was looking for a
cross-platform GUI, though, Qt's dual-license was problematic, so I went
with wxWidgets. I see now that they've licensed Qt under the LGPL 2.1, which
is better than the dual-license model. Of course Qt's future under Nokia is
another issue, now that they've apparently embraced Microsoft (or is it the
other way around?)...
In any case, if you wish to start working on a Qt branch of the GUI,
alongside windows, wxWidgets and cli, I've no problem with that.

Anyone else on the passwordsafe-devel mailing list interested?

Cheers,

  Rony

Subject: Re: [Passwordsafe-devel] PasswordSafe 3.27pre and Linux 0.7
pre-release version

Just a side-note: Thumbs up for your efforts!
After my personal migration to "Windows 11.04" a few months ago, I would
have dropped pwsafe without a perspective..

Keep up the good work! I'm sure there is a live after Windows7 :p
One note: I guess every Ubuntu-user is able to do "make; make install"
but 0,01% of the windows-users can: you'll simply have to provide more
binaries!

Michael

P.S.: have you ever thought about Qt? As an User *and* developer between
all chairs I love it ;)
As I love pwsafe I thought many times to start that but hey, makes no
sense if no-one shares that..
Any pros for?

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.28 for Windows.
This release has a couple of nice new features, as described below, some bug
fixes, as well as full or partial support for:
Chinese, Czech (new!), Danish, Dutch, French, German, Korean, Polish,
Russian, Spanish, and Swedish.
(If you're interested in supporting your language, please let me know.)

Thanks to:
- Bert, Bjorne, Buchtik, Karlo, and pm_kan, for their translation efforts
and feedback on this release,
- The PasswordSafe testers for vetting this release,
- DK for his work and patience,
- All the users who provide feedback, bug reports, suggestions and the
occasional donation...

New Features for 3.28
=====================
[3468289] The passwords in the Password History and in the List view now
displayed with the specified Password Font. In addition, you can now zoom in
and out of the Notes field, for easy reading of texts.
[3455436] The password history can now be deleted for all existing entries
in a database at once (optionally including Protected Entries).
[3421963] Multiple Password Policies can now be defined, managed and
selected in entries to generate passwords.
[] Partial support for Czech has been added, thanks to butchtik.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.28
====================================
[3445820] The Edit menu item and entry right-click context menu item "Copy
Run Command to Clipboard" will now substitute any variables within the
command. This can be disabled by holding down the Ctrl key when selecting
these menu items. (Note that the standard menu shortcut can't be used to
disable, as the Ctrl key may be used to select a different menu
item/command.)
[] As mentioned in the V3.26 release, the XML representation of date/time
fields, are now in the W3C dateTime standard format instead of
PasswordSafe's. This release no longer supports import of XML files with
date time fields in the old PasswordSafe's format.
See the online Help (the XML section of "Import Password Entries") if you
need to manually convert old XML files.
[] After closing the current database, on opening another, PasswordSafe will
first attempt to access the directory of the last opened database in order
to allow the user to start browsing for their intended database.  If this
directory is not available, PasswordSafe will open the default "My Safes"
directory as it did prior to this change.
[] Databases are now always validated when opened. The Manage->Validate menu
item has therefore been removed.
[] The default backup policy has been changed to save the last three
versions of the database, instead of one. 
[] The graphic symbols for entries, groups, etc. have been redone, as most
displays now support more than 256 colors.

Bugs fixed in 3.28
==================
[3486960] Rename of a group is now complete even if a filter is active.
[3486959] PasswordSafe no longer crashes when returning to edit after lock.
[3468853] The number of saved passwords can be changed and after the user
presses Apply they will no longer be warned that the entry has been changed
when pressing Cancel.
[3462520] A password entry's expiry time in days now correctly reflects the
expiration date for non-recurring expiration.
[3440318] Filters can now be cleared by double-clicking on the filter
indicator in the status bar. Also, Filter Menu correctly changed when a
filter is active.
[3435869] '-g config_file' option now accepts a non-existing file, creating
it after notifying the user.
[3430196] Buttons in the Options property pages now retain the user's
Windows theme.
[] Fix inability to copy entries to the original database in the Compare
database results dialog.
[] Thanks to Jon F. for proofreading the online help.

The U3 and PasswordSafe2Go versions will be updated soon and available from
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2031906
and
