Re: [Passwordsafe-devel] PasswordSafe v3 read/write command line tool

[<ra...@he...>]

I wrote a command line script for PasswordSafe (linux) I call "pw" but, sorry,
forgot to post it to this list! [1]  It's really just a stupid perl script that
wraps around "psafedump.py".  

Is it high quality?  No, but it works.  It's read-only and ought to be fleshed
out (i.e.  switches added to lookup other attributes besides the basic
group/title/login/password.)  If anyone actually uses the script and bugs me
about it, I'll put it on a to-do list.

It uses the python library written by Paul McIntyre. [2]  Refer to the archives
ca Jul 18th 2011.  I altered Paul's library some to get it working, I'm not
sure he folded those changes into the Source, so if the current code doesn't
work let me know.

[Passwordsafe-devel] PasswordSafe v3 read/write command line tool

[Matt M. <mat...@gm...>]

Hi,

I'm looking for a command line tool to read and write PasswordSafe v3
databases. I've been using pwsafe from http://nsd.dyndns.org/pwsafe/, and
as far as I can tell, no one has updated it to use v3 databases. I see a
variety of other command line projects that all appear more immature and
incomplete.

Is there a high quality command line tool for reading and writing v3
databases?

Thanks,
Matt

[Passwordsafe-devel] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.28

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

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
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2880062

Re: [Passwordsafe-devel] [3.28pre2] Unlocked Safe: Shortcut & Alias = Entry

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

Hi Fernando,

Nice catch! With the help of your accurate description and test database,
the problem was duplicated and fixed. Uploading new builds to
pwsafe.org/tmp/3.28pre2, should be done in ~20 minutes.

Cheers,

[Passwordsafe-devel] PasswordSafe 3.28pre2 ready for testing

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

I've uploaded a pre-release version of PasswordSafe 3.28 for final testing:
Zip file with binaries:
http://pwsafe.org/tmp/3.28pre2/pwsafe-3.28pre2-bin.zip
Installer: http://pwsafe.org/tmp/3.28pre2/pwsafe-3.28pre2.exe

The main new feature of this release is the ability to define and name
multiple password policies: You can define a password policy to match all
your credit card websites, for example, and another for your bank, each
matching the requirements of the particular sites. The policies can be
managed via the new Manage->Password Policies... dialog box, and selected
per-entry by the new, simplified Edit Entry -> Password Policy tab.

Aside from that, this release has the usual set of tweaks and bugfixes -
please see the release notes for details.

Remember that this is a pre-release version: Please make copies of the
databases that you use to test this version.

If no surprises come up, I'd like to make a formal release in a few days.

Cheers,

  Rony

[Passwordsafe-devel] PasswordSafe 3.26pre ready for translation update

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

I've uploaded a pre-release version of PasswordSafe 3.28, plus the .po
files with the new strings for translation.

Here are the main new/changed user-visible features:

[3468289] Use the Password font for passwords displayed in the Password
History and for those displayed in the List view.  Also add the ability to
zoom in/out of the Notes field to enable any text to be more easily read.

[3455436] Users may now delete the password history for all existing
entries in a database. They may choose to also change Protected Entries,
although the default is not to.

[3421963] Centralized Password Policies can now be saved in a database,
managed (added, edited and deleted), exported and imported, used in filters
and to generate passwords.

[3445820] The Edit menu item and entry right-click context menu item "Copy
Run Command to Clipboard" will, by default, substitute any variables within
the command. To disable this, hold down the Ctrl key when selecting these
menu items.  The standard menu shortcut cannot be used to disable the
substitution as the Ctrl key may be used to select a different menu
item/command.

[] 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.

Note that the English help text isn't quite ready yet, this will be
announced separately.

Schedule: I'd like to release this version around mid-February.

The files may be found in the directory that DK set up, which also includes
tools and instructions for those intersted in making their own dlls for
testing:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/Translation%20Tools%20for%20Windows%20%28MFC%29%20Version/

(http://tinyurl.com/6fgecno)

The new files are under the 3.28pre folder in the above.

Thanks in advance for your help in making PasswordSafe accessible all over
the world!

Cheers,

 Rony

[Passwordsafe-devel] PasswordSafe Linux 0.7Beta release

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

Version 0.7 of PasswordSafe for Linux is available for download.

Thanks to Sauravg and pm_kan for their work on this release.

Currently we provide precompiled .deb packages for 32 bit Ubuntu and Debian
distributions. PasswordSafe is known to build and run under 64 bit platforms
and other distributions as well. Please drop me a note if you're interested
in helping create packages for more platforms.

Notes regarding Ubuntu's Unity desktop:
1. Unity has some rather strict ideas as to what can and can't be displayed
as a system tray icon, with PasswordSafe falling under the latter category.
Therefore we recommend the Mnage->Options->Put icon in System Tray checkbox
be turned *OFF* for this platform.
2. Under the latest Ubuntu release (11.10), the Notes field in the Password
Entry's details is unreadable. We are currently investigating this.

The Linux packages may be downloaded from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/Linux-BETA/0.7.0/password
safe-ubuntu-0.7.0BETA.i686.deb/download
http://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/Linux-BETA/0.7.0/password
safe-debian-0.7.0BETA.i686.deb/download

SHA-1 checksums:
4333ec1498bfee24da5868ceb982c2ad73248acd
passwordsafe-debian-0.7.0BETA.i686.deb
29cadb83bb996c230ffac267b8e5ade646c73cac
passwordsafe-ubuntu-0.7.0BETA.i686.deb

Note that this release also includes PGP/GPG signature files of the
respective packages. These were signed with my SourceForge account key,
keyid FA175557, key fingerprint = FF77 379D D46D DAA6 6182   B452 1D79 5A91

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

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

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

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

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

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.

The files are as follows:
Windows Binaries: http://pwsafe.org/tmp/3.27pre/pwsafe-3.27pre-bin.zip

Re: [Passwordsafe-devel] Python Library For Password Safe

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

 

Thanks to Paul for both his code and his efforts to release this as Open
Source to the community.

 

As PasswordSafe is released under a different Open Source License than
GPLv2, I've decided not to add it under the main pwsafe project.

Instead, I've set up a public Git repository with the code at
<https://github.com/ronys/pypwsafe> https://github.com/ronys/pypwsafe. I'll
be happy to host any discussion of Paul's project on this mailing list, at
least until the traffic justifies a split into separate lists :-)

 

Cheers,

 

  Rony

Subject: [Passwordsafe-devel] Python Library For Password Safe

 

All, 

 

A pure-Python library that can read and write Password Safe v3 files has
been released under the GPLv2 by Symantec. Attached is a copy of the latest
code. 

 

I’d like to either host this as a “sub-project” out of the Password Safe
project or create a new SourceForge/Google Code project for this library.
Thoughts? 

 

There are a few known issues: 

 

1)      HMAC validation fails with some recent versions of Password Safe. I
suspect this is an issue with the support for bug 1812081. 

2)      Some of the more recent record properties aren’t supported

3)      Lack of documentation

 

I intend to update the library to correct these issues as time allows. 

 

I can be reached with any thoughts, ideas, or concerns via paul at gpmidi
net. 

 

Best Regards,

Re: [Passwordsafe-devel] Personal note of gratitude

[ronys <ro...@us...>]

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your kind words. It's always nice to hear from a satisfied user,
especially for an Open Source volunteer project such as PasswordSafe.

I'm cc'ing this reply to the PasswordSafe developers' mailing list, as
PasswordSafe is, more than anything else, a collaboration of enthusiastic
and talented programmers, who really deserve the thanks for many, if not
most, of the new features that have been added over time.

Cheers,

  Rony

Re: [Passwordsafe-devel] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.26

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

A last minute bug forced me to replace the files. Here's the same
announcement with a typo fixed and the new updated SHA1 values.

Sorry about the confusion.

  Rony

-----Original Message-----

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.26. 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.)

A new beta release of the Linux version will be ready soon, and announced on
the passwordsafe-linux mailing list
(https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/passwordsafe-linux).

Thanks to:
- Bert, Bjorn, Jose, Karlo, mniklas 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,
- 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 3.26
=======================
[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
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2880062

Hi,

The "Go" button in the "Edit/View Entry" window does not work under linux.
What happens is that it brings up a window that reads...

  'Go' placeholder

(Which is kinda curious because Right-Click then Browse to URL DOES work.)

If I send along a patch to make the 'Go' button work, might it get folded

[Passwordsafe-devel] PasswordSafe 3.26pre update #1

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

The 3.26 pre prelease has been updated with translations in German, Polish,
Dutch and Spanish (Thanks to Karlo, mniklas, Bert and Jose, resp.).

Translators are invited to download the new binaries (including language
dlls) for testing from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/Translation%20Tools%20for
%20Windows%20%28MFC%29%20Version/3.26pre/pwsafe-3.26pre-bin.zip/download
(http://tinyurl.com/6guqsh3)

Testers: You can download the same file for testing. A summary of the new
features follows. Note that we would like to release 3.26 by the end of the
month, in order to get this version on the giveaway DVD of a major PC
magazine, so any help you can provide in finding bugs by then would be
greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

  Rony

Subject: [Passwordsafe-devel] PasswordSafe 3.26pre ready for translation

Hi,
 
I've uploaded a pre-release version of PasswordSafe 3.26, plus the .po files
with the new strings for translation.
 
Here are the main user-visible features:
[3288341] Autotype now 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 the database between read-only and read-write
mode (and vice versa) via a menu item or by double-clicking on the current
R-O or R/W indicator in the StausBar.
[3203152] The language can changed 'on-the-fly'. 
[3065111] Add/Edit now displays both the Application's (PasswordSafe) and
the current database's default Autotype string (if set via Manage->Options).
[2964804] The user can specify the list of symbols valid for a database and
can override this for any particular entry. Note: the inbuilt special
symbols for EasyVision and Pronounceable passwords can not be overriden in
either case.
[] Allow user to control the copying 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 CSV files exported from KeePass V1. 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.
 
Note that the English help text has not been updated yet, we will update and
announce this separately.
 
Schedule: We've been selected for inclusion in a DVD giveaway by a major PC
magazine, so I'd really like to have 3.26 ready towards the end of June, to
provide them with the latest version.
 
The files may be found in the new directory that DK set up, which also
includes tools and instructions for those intersted in making their own dlls
for testing:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/Translation%20Tools%20fo
r%20Windows%20%28MFC%29%20Version/

The new files are under the 3.26pre folder in the above.

Thanks in advance for your help in making PasswordSafe accessible all over
the world!

Re: [Passwordsafe-devel] [pwsafe-i18n] PasswordSafe 3.26pre ready for translation update

[Karlo V. d. G. <ka...@va...>]

Hi Rony,

on translating for V3.26 I didn't find a possibility to translate in menu
'manage' the item 'Change Language'.
Is this deliberate? It's not available in the PO file.
This would be the only "English" item in all language dependant versions.

I would like to put this item in the F1-help file (with  picture of the
menu, of course)

Kind regards
Karlo

Betreff: [pwsafe-i18n] PasswordSafe 3.26pre ready for translation update

Hi,
 
I've uploaded a pre-release version of PasswordSafe 3.26, plus the .po files
with the new strings for translation.
 
Here are the main user-visible features:
[3288341] Autotype now 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 the database between read-only and read-write
mode (and vice versa) via a menu item or by double-clicking on the current
R-O or R/W indicator in the StausBar.
[3203152] The language can changed 'on-the-fly'. 
[3065111] Add/Edit now displays both the Application's (PasswordSafe) and
the current database's default Autotype string (if set via Manage->Options).
[2964804] The user can specify the list of symbols valid for a database and
can override this for any particular entry. Note: the inbuilt special
symbols for EasyVision and Pronounceable passwords can not be overriden in
either case.
[] Allow user to control the copying 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 CSV files exported from KeePass V1. 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.
 
Note that the English help text has not been updated yet, we will update and
announce this separately.
 
Schedule: We've been selected for inclusion in a DVD giveaway by a major PC
magazine, so I'd really like to have 3.26 ready towards the end of June, to
provide them with the latest version.
 
The files may be found in the new directory that DK set up, which also
includes tools and instructions for those intersted in making their own dlls
for testing:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/Translation%20Tools%20fo
r%20Windows%20%28MFC%29%20Version/
(http://tinyurl.com/6fgecno)
The new files are under the 3.26pre folder in the above.

Thanks in advance for your help in making PasswordSafe accessible all over
the world!

 Rony

[Passwordsafe-devel] New Translation File Area

[DK <dk...@gm...>]

All,

I have created a new directory "Translation Tools for Windows (MFC)
Version" that can be found in the Files area of the PasswordSafe Project in
SourceForge.  It can be found at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/.

Within this directory are:

   - A document that explains the process of creating, updating and using
   the PO files to create a resource-only Language DLL that provides support
   for non-English translations of the PasswordSafe dialogs, menus and
   messages.
   - A zip file containing simple scripts that allow you to perform these
   functions if you do not want to use the native commands described in the
   above document.  Note: as this is for the translations of the current
   Windows version only, the scripts are also written to be supported natively
   by Windows.  Other scripts may be made available later but would probably
   require you to install another script language such as Perl and/or Python.
   - A zip file containing the latest version of the ResText program needed
   to create/update the PO files and also to create the resource-only Language
   DLL.
   - A zip file containing the latest version of the ResPWSL program that is
   required to update this DLL so that PasswordSafe can recognise and use it
   under the new "Change Language" menu function.

There is also a zipped file of the "Base DLL" used as input to the process.

Whereas the document, scripts and programs are unlikely to change very
often, if at all, the Base DLL will change whenever we add, change or delete
a dialog, menu or message string within PasswordSafe.  For this reason, the
zip file containing this Base DLL has been named
"pwsafe_base-3.25.1.4096.zip" meaning it is the version corresponding to
PasswordSafe V3.25.1 at revision 4096.  Whenever a developer changes a
dialog, menu or string (note: not all updates/revisions to PasswordSafe will
do this!), then a new zipped Base DLL should be added to this file area,
although if it is part of a major development effort, this might not be done
until that is complete.

PasswordSafe only insists that the major and minor versions of the
application and the resource-only Language DLL agree (in this case '3' and
'25') and so you should be able to check any of your changes with a released
version of PasswordSafe, although some new features may not be visible.  In
future, we may be able to also add the corresponding release build of the
PasswordSafe application.

If we do not add the Base DLL or corresponding application for every change,
we will certainly do so before any formal release so that you can download
them to effect your translation changes in time for that release.

It is hoped that this area will help you in the translation of this
application and see the results of them quickly in your own environment
without having to wait for a developer to generate the resource-only
Language DLL and send it back to you for you to verify.

Regards,

David

[Passwordsafe-devel] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.25

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

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

Yeah, that must be it.  You can build it by doing this in the
help/default directory

zip -r help ./* -x \*/.svn/\*

Then put the help file in "/usr/share/doc/passwordsafe/help/".
Currently, this path is hard-coded.

Sorry, I hadn't noticed that the makefiles don't do this yet.  I also
missed the fact that you built it yourself and didn't actually install
a prebuilt binary which includes the help file.

Thanks,
Saurav.
