Added in 2.2.7:
- Added a simple password protection and encryption feature. From the tray menu, there is now a Password... menu option which allows you to set a password which will encrypt your StrokesPlus.xml file and restrict access to the main configuration window. Since some people may have their passwords in clear text with actions, this provides some simple security for others viewing your StrokesPlus.xml file or opening the actions window and looking at your passwords directly. This change does not affect the StrokesPlus.lua (Global Lua) file in any way and it remains clear text.
This isn't any kind of serious encryption, just a simple method to conceal your config file from average prying eyes.
BACKUP your StrokesPlus.xml file before enabling the password encryption as it cannot be recovered if you lose the password or something goes wrong since this is a new feature that hasn't been thoroughly tested in the wild. I would recommend sticking to ASCII characters for the password to avoid any odd behavior |
