</div>Hmm, not sure I fully understand this one. Are you saying that pass<br>
should have a list of common sites password restrictions hardcoded?<br>
Because that would be potentially be a very long list.<br>
<div class="quoted-text"></div></blockquote></div></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">So yes, this would be a long list, and should not go in the core script. An api would need to be written. See below - I'm not talking about creating a full list. I'm talking about making the mechanism, making a few work. Maybe finding some resources if people have done this before (and implementing whatever I can/feel like from that) and leaving the rest to the community. I can't guarantee that I know exactly what I'm asking, but I've got a pretty good idea :) </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div class="quoted-text"><br>

</div>I'm not aware of a common interface across websites that does this. I<br>
would be interested in learning about it if you know one.<br>
<div class="quoted-text"></div></blockquote></div></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Definitely isn't a common interface for this. Best case - figure out headers to pass to curl and request parameters to handle it.

</div>What is your pass version? If you have >= 1.7, can't you just use -q?<br></blockquote></div></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Oops, should've looked - wasn't there last time I looked (years ago?) </div><div dir="auto"><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div></div></div>
