It has a light interface, is cross 1.6 +platform and published under the terms of the GNU General Public License. 1.7 + 1.8 +KeePassX saves many different information e.g. user names, passwords, 1.9 +urls, attachments and comments in one single database. For a better 1.10 +management user-defined titles and icons can be specified for each 1.11 +single entry. Furthermore the entries are sorted in groups, which 1.12 +are customizable as well. The integrated search function allows to 1.13 +search in a single group or the complete database. 1.14 +KeePassX offers a little utility for secure password generation. 1.15 +The password generator is very customizable, fast and easy to use. 1.16 +Especially someone who generates passwords frequently will appreciate 1.17 +this feature. 1.18 + 1.19 +The complete database is always encrypted either with AES (alias Rijndael) 1.20 +or Twofish encryption algorithm using a 256 bit key. Therefore the saved 1.21 +information can be considered as quite safe. KeePassX uses a database 1.22 +format that is compatible with KeePass Password Safe. This makes the use 1.23 +of that application even more favourable. 1.24 + 1.25 +Originally KeePassX was called KeePass/L for Linux since it was a port 1.26 +of Windows password manager Keepass Password Safe. After KeePass/L became 1.27 +a cross platform application the name was not appropriate anymore and 1.28 +therefore, on 22 March 2006 it has been changed.
