Technologies used

• C Language
• Batch scripting language

Setting up stuff

• The main.c file is being developed in Dev-C++ using compilers TDM-GCC and MinGW.
  Here are some of the links: Dev-C++ (https://sourceforge.net/projects/orwelldevcpp/) , TDM-GCC (http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/) and MinGW (http://www.mingw.org/).
• The file en_pass.txt is mandatory to have and needs to be in the same directory as of main.c
• If en_pass.txt is not there, write_pass_to_file() can be called from main. It'll create the file with the default master password.
• DEFAULT MASTER PASSWORD IS: Ninik
• Master Password can be changed once there is a successful entry in the main menu.

About encryption/decryption algos

• Plain .txt files store the entry name along with passwords in encrypted form. Encryption algorithm can be changed as well (Recommended).
• All the passwords must be encrypted with the same algo in order to retrieve them again.

Terminologies and Other Notes:

• Master Password: Master password grants access to the Main Menu.
• Passwords are stored in a different form after going through an algo.
• Passwords are stored as
  TitleName Pass(\n)
  TitleName Pass(\n)
  EOF
  See here https://raw.githubusercontent.com/k9-devs/Ninik/master/graphics/pass_txt.PNG
• Algorithm encrypting and decrypting any password is pretty simple right now. One can implement its own algo to change the storage form of passwords.
