Yeah. I think the Gnome keyring was designed after the Mac's.
Anyway, my implementation has two back ends: an Emacs-specific one
that stores a sexp encrypted with GPG, and a Gnome-specific one that
uses a helper program to contact the Gnome keyring.
Adding a helper program for the Mac sounds doable, at least for
someone who knows the Mac. It would also be interesting to look at
sharing keyring data in Emacs -- using Emacs to convert keyring
formats, upload to a private shared site, whatever.
Would folks prefer to see what I have now, or is a big patch to fix
everything preferable?
