Comparison with keyring package

keyring is a most wildly used Python library to access passwords.

Notable differences between flexpass and keyring:

• keyring is a lot more mature and has many more backends.

• flexpass does not require to specify a username in addition to the password name.

• flexpass provides a predictible and easily configurable order of precedence for the backends.

• flexpass aims at including usual backends without requiring additional packages (in particular, the simple pass command is avaible).

• flexpass easily gives access to the list of passwords.
