About pwdsphinx-tools
From Debian's package description
SPHINX -- password Store that Perfectly Hides from Itself (No Xaggeration) -- is an information-theoretically secure cryptographic password storage protocol with strong security guarantees, as described in the 2015 paper "Device-Enhanced Password Protocols with Optimal Online-Offline Protection" by Jarecki, Krawczyk, Shirvanian, and Saxena (https://ia.cr/2015/1099). It is documented online at https://sphinx.pm/ .
This package contains 4 simple scripts which
- wrap the client to query the master password securely using pinentry: "getpwd",
- a tool "exec-on-click" which executes a command on mouse-click,
- a tool "type-pwd" that combines the two previous tools to insert a password without using the clipboard,
- and a dmenu wrapper "dmenu-sphinx" that uses all of the above to retrieve usernames and passwords for given hosts.
Some of these tools can also be used for other password managers, that are using the clipboard to deliver passwords to the UI.
From Debian's description of the pwdsphinx-tools package, under that package's license.
