fun Stefan!
(Karl this is a good toy for you as well :)
=) I felt like working off it when I saw it. it would be fun to copy it to another language, but maybe what's more important is using keys in the first place ;p . i'm trying to use the energy to work on blockchain stuff, towards prevention destruction of information https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5303371.0 . i'm using the energy to add electrumx backend functionality to bsvup, to make it easier to connect to personal servers to upload data, which i'll try to spam about if i fail.
only suggestion would be to add a button to CLEAR CLIPBOARD.
this decreases the vulnerability window for clipboard stealing attacks (if in your threat model...)
exercise for reader?
i always say it's good to add a little informatoin towards this stuff while you have the information active from looking at it and thinking about it, since other people might have a bigger barrier to contribute. i know keepassx automatically clears its passwords out of the clipboard if the user hasn't, after a short delay. i've always appreciated that feature. i would probably go to the keepassx source code to figure out how to implement it, myself.
