NAME

dmenu-sphinx - dmenu-frontend for retrieving and inserting passwords from sphinx(1) into X11 applications

SYNOPSIS

dmenu-sphinx [username] [hostname]
    

DESCRIPTION

dmenu-sphinx provides an interactive interface for retrieving SPHINX passwords and automatically typing them into X11 applications. It uses dmenu(1) to present hostname selection menus and builds on type-pwd(1) for password entry.

The tool first displays cached hostnames from previous usage. If multiple usernames exist for the selected hostname, it presents a username selection menu. Otherwise, it proceeds directly to password generation. Finally, it invokes type-pwd(1) to type the password into the focused application.

The hostname history is cached in the file ~/.sphinx-hosts.
