A simple script that lets you add, edit, list, and delete passwords from the
CLI. Passwords are stored in `~/.password_manager.json` in a simple JSON object
(hash) structure. Currently a very early release that still needs to be updated.

Pros:

- simplicity.

Cons:

- At the time of this writing (version 1.0.0) only the password hash is stored
  and returned, making this application unusable at the moment.
- Password must be entered as command-line argument, making it visible from
  process list and shell history, unless you explicitly disable those.
- Cannot add other fields to a record, e.g. comment/note, date, etc.
- Usernames are not encrypted.

A CLI to read entries from an addressbook file in a specific layout in Org
format. This tool can be used to read from a PGP-encrypted addressbook file, and
thus can also be used as a password retriever.

Pros:

- Standard tool and format for the data storage (PGP-encrypted Org file, which
  can be edited with Emacs).

Cons:

- Does not come with the functionality of adding/editing/removing entries. Use
  your editor like Emacs to do so.

=head1 FAQ

=head2 What is an Acme::CPANModules::* module?

An Acme::CPANModules::* module, like this module, contains just a list of module
names that share a common characteristics. It is a way to categorize modules and
document CPAN. See L<Acme::CPANModules> for more details.

=head2 What are ways to use this Acme::CPANModules module?

Aside from reading this Acme::CPANModules module's POD documentation, you can
install all the listed modules (entries) using L<cpanm-cpanmodules> script (from
L<App::cpanm::cpanmodules> distribution):

 % cpanm-cpanmodules -n CLI::PasswordManager

Alternatively you can use the L<cpanmodules> CLI (from L<App::cpanmodules>
distribution):

    % cpanmodules ls-entries CLI::PasswordManager | cpanm -n

or L<Acme::CM::Get>:

    % perl -MAcme::CM::Get=CLI::PasswordManager -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

or directly:

    % perl -MAcme::CPANModules::CLI::PasswordManager -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $Acme::CPANModules::CLI::PasswordManager::LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

This Acme::CPANModules module also helps L<lcpan> produce a more meaningful
result for C<lcpan related-mods> command when it comes to finding related
modules for the modules listed in this Acme::CPANModules module.
See L<App::lcpan::Cmd::related_mods> for more details on how "related modules"
are found.
