Revelation 0.3.1 "The obstacle is the path" released

[Erik Grinaker <erikg codepoet no>]

Revelation is a password manager for the GNOME 2 desktop, released under
the GNU GPL license. It stores all your accounts and passwords in a
single, secure place, and gives you access to it through a user-friendly
graphical interface.

This release has many small improvements and quite a few bugfixes.
Notable changes include autosaving data when changed, saving of window
size and position on quit, and import/export of GNOME Password Manager
and .netrc files. In addition, the internal data handling has been
almost completely rewritten, and much of the code has been cleaned up.


New features:
- added a preference for autosaving data on change
- added import/export of .netrc files
- added import/export of GNOME Password Manager (gpass) files
- replaced the import/export druids with normal file selectors
- window size and position is stored on quit
- default type when adding entries is Generic
- vertical scrollbar only displayed when needed
- most dialogs can be closed by pressing Escape
- the OK button in password dialogs is ghosted until passwords are given
- removed schema installation from setup.py to ease packaging

Bugfixes:
- the preferences and import/export druids crashed on some systems
- the gconf schema is checked on startup, and reinstalled when needed
- fields containing & were not displayed correctly
- file selector was opened when saving file in quit confirmation
- spin buttons would not accept input from the keyboard
- missing parent directories are created when saving files
- added access keys to popup menus
- file selectors and the about dialog set as transient for main window

Code changes:

  and improved EntryStore, UndoQueue, DataFile and other
  related systems

- rewrote the configuration handling, using a new Config class
- merged application UI and functionality classes
