Because there are no packed versions available.
Sow we would first have to port and pack the CLI version before we can make a GUI

Also I would have to know where the config file is stored about which you wrote earlier.
Hi! Sound great, thanks for taking you time on this!
Sadly no, atm I only use online javascript(Download).

Regarding the config, never mind that. I just forget to think first, then write & submit.

Since, first of all its a gui for the passwordmaker CLI-version.
BUT secondly, as of v.1.5 of mentioned ditto, it can use the RDF files from passwordmakers firefox plugin.

But Hey, that's somewhere way down the road I guess!

Ah, yes. KeePassX. KeePassX is however a whole kind of different animal compared to Passwordmaker, since its a 'manager' aka in this case, a database application.
Passwordmaker is all about math, as it calculates ones passwords when they are needed by the means of your favorite magic one-way hash algorithm. Currently it supports these "guise".

After all is said and done, I find myself being much more comfortable with a tinfoilhat than convenience. YMMV.

As your attorney, I advise you to take those USB flashdrive of yours, that you never use anyway and your fellow mans epoxy, glue the sticks in a some nice public environment and point them out on DD.
