.SH NAME
tkpwdb \- password database manager
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B tkpwdb
[file]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B tkpwdb
is a password list manager. It is cross-platform, and will run on
any system where
.I tcl/Tk
can be installed. It was designed specifically for use on 
iPaq handheld systems, it has been tested on iPaq and desktop un*x,
and Windows systems. It should run on Macintosh systems, as well.
.PP
The data is stored in a colon-delimited, flat file so that it may be
manipulated by many tools. For batch work, it can easily be imported
and exported between various other programs. A stand-alone, command-line
application, 
.B rc4
, is available for encrypting and decrypting the data file, and any
other data stream desired.
.SH NOTES
The program uses RC4 encryption. Although copyrighted, the algorithm
and example source code is easily available. RC4 encryption is 
relatively difficult to break, and is used many popular protocols.
When the data file is loaded (see the
.B FILES
section for default file locations), the
.I Category
field will be parsed so that entries may be viewed by individual
categories. Individual entries can viewed by double-clicking on them.
They can be further manipulated by highlighting them, and selecting
an operation from one of the buttons.
.SH FILES
If called with no arguments, 
.B tkpwdb
will default to:
.ta .5i 4i
.ds Z	$HOME/.tkpwdb \t (un*x)
.ds ZZ	%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%/tkpwdb \t (windows)
.ds ZZZ	$PREFS/.tkpwdb \t (mac)
.nf

.SH COMPATIBILITY
Since the program is written in tcl/Tk, it will run on any system where
these tools can be installed. It has been tested on handheld and desktop
linux systems, and Windows 2000.
