Hi, Please find in http://passwordsafe.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/passwordsafe/trunk/pwsafe/pws afe/docs/formatV3.txt?revision=1551&view=markup (http://tinyurl.com/38pckm) A new version of the file format description, based on discussions on this list. Main changes: - Introduction rewritten. - Clarification regarding field order (only constraint is that last field is of type END). - Clarification regarding Text representation (UTF-8 unless explicitly stated otherwise). - Note regarding misrepresentation of header timestamp as an 8 byte ASCII string. - Deprecation of header field "Who performed last save" (0x05), replaced by "last saved by user" and "last saved on host" (0x07, 0x08). - Addition of database name and database description header fields - Added a section on extensibility, (a) recommended handling of unknown fields, (b) defining application-specific range of type identifiers, guaranteed to be unassigned by the "official" format description. I believe I've addressed all the issues that have been discussed on this list regarding the format. Please let me know if you find any error, or if you see any major difficulty in implementing the format as specified.
