- tolmannator 9y agoI understand, but personally, if I'm already using the convenient wrapper that is pass for everything else, it simplifies my life to use it here too. I could see going with less glue if there wasn't an expectation that pass be installed and configured on a system already. Those aren't my systems though. Either would work.
- craftyguy 9y agoOh yes, I'm not trying to convince you to change. I'm merely pointing out that this technique is not exclusive to pass, but rather that it's easily done without pass too. pass is an amazing tool!
