Speaking of GeekSafe, I did write an update which is available on UNNA and
on my web site <http://home.cox.rr.com/nemesys/>. Among other things, the
new version can now use the entire screen on a MP2x00 or eMate, or you can
still use it in a floating window (see preferences). The new version has now
the ability to export all or a selection of your passwords and other
information in a new note in the notepad, so that you can later export them
to the desktop. So, if something wrong happens to your Newt, you're not
locked up.

There is apparently a little bug if you use extended characters as a
password that I haven't been able to work on so far, so beware...

-Laurent.

********************** Usual disclaimers apply **********************
elephantine adj.: Used of programs or systems that are both conspicuous hogs
(owing perhaps to poor design founded on brute force and ignorance) and
exceedingly hairy in source form. An elephantine program may be functional
and even friendly, but (as in the old joke about being in bed with an
elephant) it's tough to have around all the same (and, like a pachyderm,
difficult to maintain). In extreme cases, hackers have been known to make
trumpeting sounds or perform expressive proboscatory mime at the mention of
the offending program. Usage: semi-humorous. Compare `has the elephant
nature' and the somewhat more pejorative monstrosity. See also second-system
effect and baroque.
