It would be a good project to rewrite in Rust.

I have had thought about doing it that way.

I did compile pwsafe from sources just fine on a stretch system. I have yet to try it on sid/buster. There have been very small commits on the code in the last year. I’m contemplating contacting the author to see if he/she would be interested in extending it to have v3 support and how much that might cost. Would others want to share that expense with me? Maybe a kickstarter/gofundme.

I’d really like to find a passwordsafe v3 compatible commandline app, as I’m using passwordsafe on multiple platforms. My current commandline pwsafe database is a v2. I will certainly need to migrate it to something else ,which doesn’t look painless. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
