** [#A] Man page: man8/mandos-client.8mandos
11
Needs options listed, not just "[OPTION...]"
13
Move options to new OPTIONS section.
14
State that this command is not meant to be invoked directly, but
15
is meant to be run by cryptsetup by being specified in
16
/etc/crypttab and only run in the initrd environment, not the real
21
Describe the plus sign syntax for passing options from crypttab
23
Examples of normal usage, debug usage, debugging single or all
24
plugins, examples of crypttab lines with plus syntax, etc.
26
Describe plugin directory

** [#B] Fix %d format strings to use [[https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Inttypes.h][<inttypes.h>]]
39
** use strsep instead of strtok?
40
** use config file in addition to arguments
41
** pass things in environment, like device name, etc
43
As a fallback, if no plugins can be found or if all of them failed,
44
run getpass(3) itself.
47
** [#A] Man page: man8/password-request.8mandos
49
Needs options listed, not just "[OPTION...]"
51
Move options to new OPTIONS section.
52
State that this command is not meant to be invoked directly, but
53
is run as a plugin from mandos-client(8) and only run in the
54
initrd environment, not the real system.
58
Examples of normal usage, debug usage, debugging by connecting
61
Describe the key files and the key ring files. Also note that
62
they should normally have been automatically created.

** use strsep instead of strtok?
78
** Do not depend on GPG key rings on disk
79
This would mean creating new GPG key rings with GPGME by importing
80
the key files from scratch on every program start.
83
** [#A] Man page: man8/password-prompt.8mandos
85
Needs options listed, not just "[OPTION...]"
87
Move options to new OPTIONS section.
91
Examples of normal usage, debug usage, with a prefix, etc.
96
Not much to do here but it is noteworthy to state the danger of
97
not having a fallback option.
99
Note that this is more or less a simple getpass(3) wrapper, even
100
though actual use of getpass(3) is not guaranteed.
