# Pass - The Unix password manager Forget proprietary password managers that require a subscription, use `pass` to generate, store, and retrieve all your passwords through your gpg key ```bash pass init emiliko@mami2.moe pass insert university/password pass insert -e university/username ``` Passwords, or rather entire files can be retrieved to stdout, the clipboard, or a qrcode. Stdout will show multiline files. `-c` will only copy the first line to `wl-clipboard` for `PASSWORD_STORE_CLIP_TIME` or 45s ```bash pass [show] university/password pass [show] -c university/password pass [show] -q university/password ```
