Revelation 0.4.6 "How much for the ape?" 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 uses an improved search toolbar instead of the find dialog,
adds an option to hide the applet search entry, adds icons to password
entries to indicate password strength, and improves password strength
checking. It also fixes a few bugs including a crash when undoing some

using clipboard copy or drag/drop, allow building without an X display,
and more.
