Fwd: Generate new password for multiline entries

[Alexandre Pujol]

Hi all,

My personal solution is a (very) small pass extension pass-update [1]
that prints the password and wait for the user before to generate a new
password. It supports xclip interaction and you can change as many
password as you want in the same command:

	pass update web/password1 web/password2 ...

The actual work flow is very simple (and still long):
- Get the old password (to fill it in a form)
- Valid the change (can be skipped with -f)
- Get the new password (to fill it in a form)

I know some password manager (like lastpass) can automatically change
the password of your account for some popular website. I might check if
I can implement a similar feature.
