+tpm is a tiny shell script which is heavily inspired and largely compatible with pass.
+Just like pass it uses gpg2 to securely store your passwords, the major difference
+between pass and tpm is that the latter is a lot more minimal. Furthermore, tpm is
+written entirely in POSIX shell.
+
+Invoking tpm consists of specifying a command either insert or show and supplying one
+entry as a target. If insert is specified as a command tpm will create a new entry and
+prompt for the corresponding password. If you specify show as a command tpm will write
+the password for the given entry to standard output.
