*************************************************************************
Q:
What is PWM/Pi
A:
PWM/Pi is the platform-independend version of PwManager 1.0.1, written by
Michael Buesch and the PwManager Team (http://passwordmanager.sourceforge.net)
*************************************************************************
Q:
For which platform is PWM/Pi available?
A:
PWM/Pi is the platform-independend version of PWManager and it
includes a replacement for the KDE libraries called microkde.
-It can be compiled to any platform, where Qt is available.
-The source code compiles without modifications on Windows,
-Linux Desktop and Sharp Zaurus PDA. Precompiled versions are available
-on www.pi-sync.info for Windows and Sharp Zaurus PDA.
+Precompiled versions are available
+on www.pi-sync.info for Linux and Sharp Zaurus PDA.
Latest versions and the source code cvs can be found at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/kdepimpi/
*************************************************************************
+Q:
+How can I create categories in PWM/Pi?
+A:
+In PWM/Pi you cannot create categories.
+You can set (or change) a category for a specific password entry.
+PwM/Pi reads all categories from all password entries and creates a category list from that.
+*************************************************************************
Q:
Can I exchange the password files from PWM/Pi and PwManager
A:
The password files of PWM/Pi can not be exchanged with all versions up
to 1.0.1 of PwManager.
However, Michael will integrate our changes into a PwManager release
1.1, and the password files of that release will then be interchangable
with PWM/Pi
*************************************************************************
Q:
Does Export/Import keep sync information in place
A:
Exporting data from PwManager removes all sync related information
(Meta information) from the data. Because of that, a subsequent import
results in "new" entries that will be handled as new entries when
syncing them with an existing password file.
*************************************************************************
Q:
Can PWM/Pi sync categories?
A:
No. PWM/Pi does not sync categories. It syncs all pw entries of the file
without checking for the entries categories.
A sync operation does not move modified entries from one category to another.
Only if the sync operation has to create a new pw entry, it checks for the
existance of the category and creates it if not existent.
*************************************************************************
Q:
Which crypto, hash and compress algorithm is applied to the remote file
while syncing?
A: The sync operation applies the local crypt, hash and compress algorithm
to both, the local and remote copy of the passwordfile and with thus
overwrites the settings of the remote PwManager application.
*************************************************************************
Q:
What is the format of the CSV file to import passwords?
A:
"Category 1",, "Desc 1", "Username 1", "Password 1", "URL 1", "Launcher 1", "Comment 1"
"Category 1",, "Desc 2", "Username 2", "Password 2", "URL 2", "Launcher 2", "Comment 2"
...
-The empty "" is neccessary, because in future versions PwManager will
support nested Categories.
-The first line must !!not!! contain the field names.
