Can you explain how to set it up or point me to a resource? http://code.confuego.org/secrets-xdg-specs/ specified the protocol only and I couldn't find a tutorial anywhere. I comitted changes to the customization of auth-sources which would let the user specify, in addition to the current "file" option expressed as a string filename: - a ':secrets' specifier, matching a host and a protocol and (optionally) a user name - within each ':secrets' specifier, one of: - a collection name as a string - the 'default symbol (which we'll convert to a collection name with (secrets-get-alias "default") IIUC) - nil to indicate we don't have a valid collection and this specifier should be skipped (this helps with misconfigured specifiers) - t to indicate any collection is OK, we'll pick the first one returned by secrets-list-collections that matches the host, port, and username - the string "session" to indicate the temporary session-level collection - optional parameters at the end of the spec, including a user name. I may move the host and port to these optional parameters as well but I'm not sure if that's a good idea. Comments welcome. So this is about 30% done... Thanks Ted
