Fail to login when password has special chars
See original GitHub issueFirst, thank you for this, it’s going to be extremely valuable to me (reading on an e-reader is so much more comfortable than on a tablet or a phone)
Now, my problem is my passwords are generated, and, as such, contain special chars.
Right now, two of them are giving me problems: :
and $
As a workaround, I escaped $
with \
, but I had to modify credentials parsing to change the configured separator into a character which does not appear in my password.
May I suggest adding a --sep
option, defaulting to :
, so that user can choose whatever char suits best ?
As for $
, I think it’s more of a shell related problem, and I can’t see for now a solution to this (other than escaping it, that is). Do you have any idea how we could overcome this ?
I am not fluent in python, but I can probably submit a PR making this separator option change, what do you think ?

That’s what I thought, perhaps on note on the README could help future users ? Anyway, thanks for having a look at it
Hi password has only @ and it is a corporate account. I am unable to login. Any advise ?
