RE: [Passwordsafe-devel] Recomendation for pwsafe 2.0

[Jeremy B. <jer...@ho...>]

I'm not trying to knock PasswordSafe by saying this but I use a product 
called AI RoboForm which basically fills out any forms with a variable 
number of fields in them. My Bank website uses 3 fields to login, pin, 
password, and a passphrase and it grabs all of them. It also fills out forms 
where your address is needed which saves time there too.

It used to be free for the first 30 saves but it may have changed. I would 
like PasswordSafe to do what you're asking a little more like RoboForm 
though, with the ability to store more than just a username and password for 
a website. The problem with doing this is you'd have to most likely stick to 
one browser unless you wanted to write code that attached itself to all of 
them which would drastically improve the filesize of passwordsafe.

PasswordSafe does what it was designed for though. It's a safe where you can 
keep any password and use it for reference. Sure I would love it to 
instinctively know to login to a URL or a program or something else if I 
choose but that'd take a ton of work when you can combine other products to 
produce the same effect. I'd rather use this since it's free and including 
that functionality would severely rival AI RoboForm if done correctly. The 
problem is getting it done correctly and having a way to store more than 
just username and password into the safe.

I would suggest checking out AI RoboForm and then seeing if that'll work. If 
you still think PasswordSafe would be better you can at least use that to 
get some ideas about how to make something that works rather well for 
website logins (I've never met a website it couldn't login to).
