Thanks. I was aware of the existence of KWallet, but since I'm running
Gnome, that's not an option for me. I've always run KDE in the past
and I'm a new convert to Gnome, but so far I like it, so I don't think
I'll change just to get KWallet, at least not just yet.

Sorry, Adam, I have moments of great, mind-boggling incompetence
(especially in the morning) - meant to send this to the list...
