** [#A] Man page: man8/mandos-client.8mandos
11
Describe the plus sign syntax for passing options from crypttab
15
Examples of normal usage, debug usage, debugging single or all
16
plugins, examples of crypttab lines with plus syntax, etc.
26
Explaining test on what you can read

** Use asprintf instead of malloc and strcat?
28
** use strsep instead of strtok?
29
** use config file in addition to arguments
30
** pass things in environment, like device name, etc
33
** [#A] Man page: man8/password-request.8mandos
35
Move options to new OPTIONS section.
36
State that this command is not meant to be invoked directly, but
37
is run as a plugin from mandos-client(8) and only run in the
38
initrd environment, not the real system.
42
Examples of normal usage, debug usage, debugging by connecting
45
Describe the key files and the key ring files. Also note that
46
they should normally have been automatically created.
52
Create this section (if needed)
56
Refer to mandos-client(8mandos) and password-prompt(8mandos)
57
** Use asprintf instead of malloc and memcpy?
59
** use strsep instead of strtok?
60
** Do not depend on GPG key rings on disk
61
This would mean creating new GPG key rings with GPGME by importing
62
the key files from scratch on every program start.
65
** [#A] Man page: man8/password-prompt.8mandos
67
Move options to new OPTIONS section.
71
Examples of normal usage, debug usage, with a prefix, etc.
76
Not much to do here but it is noteworthy to state the danger of
77
not having a fallback option.
79
Note that this is more or less a simple getpass(3) wrapper, even
80
though actual use of getpass(3) is not guaranteed.
84
Refer to mandos-client(8mandos) and password-request(8mandos)
