It can either display your password in clear text or copy it to the clipboard for 45 seconds. I just started playing around with it and I am considering switching to it from my homebrew setup (similar to what Dan describes above). Folks have a built a cross-platform GUI frontend (based on Qt), but I prefer the CLI approach. -Shankar
