Switch to git version. Don't be afraid.

It was solved by Matt Smith some time ago, but after 007 release, so againâ see git version. :-) > One other alternative is to build a stripped-down version of the tool I > need, which implements just a single function: reads a specified token > from the smartcard (log in, specifying the card PIN, if necessary), > display it on the console and exit.

Maybe there's already such simplified tool? -- Amadeusz ÅoÅnowski PGP key fpr: C700 CEDE 0C18 212E 49DA 4653 F013 4531 E1DB FAB5
