==== Install and use pass Unix-Philosofy password manager ====
\\
To install the **pass** package
# packagemanager-install-command pass
# for Debian-based Linux, for example:
apt install pass
**Create a gpg key** if you don't have one
gpg --full-generate-key
List your keys **KEYID** in LONG format, to use it on **pass**
gpg --list-secret-keys --keyid-format LONG
# output looks something like this:
/home/user/.gnupg/pubring.kbx
-----------------------------
sec rsa4096/AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 2020-01-01 [SC]
BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
uid [ultimate] User
ssb rsa4096/CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC 2020-01-01 [E]
# copy the text in your case for the placeholder of AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
# which is your secret gpg keyid
Once you **copy the keyid**, init the password store using:
pass init "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
# !! put your keyid instead of AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
\\
=== So, how to do stuff? ===
\\
Insert a secret for mastodon.social (for example)
pass insert mastodon.social
# or
pass insert SocialMedia/mastodon.social
# or just
pass insert Social/mastodon
# or whatever hierarchy you want
**Print the secret** using tab completion
pass mastodon.social
Or just **copy it** on the main **clipboard** for 45 seconds
pass -c mastodon.social
\\
Enjoy!!
