You can also put a call to 'clear' in your ~/.bash_logout. That way it
will be called no matter how you log out.

Software is not manufactured, it is something you write and publish.
Keep Europe free from software patents, we do not want censorship
by patent law on written works.

The best system is to use a simple, well understood algorithm which
relies on the security of a key rather than the algorithm itself. This
means if anybody steals a key, you could just roll another and they
have to start all over.
