Password v1
Another fine product from Avarice Software
Password is a small utility for quickly turning on an off password
protection on the Newton. Its icon in the extras drawer indicates
whether password protection is currently turned on or off. Click on
its icon to toggle the state.
The built-in way of turning on/off password protection is somewhat
cumbersome, especially if you do it often. To turn off password
protection you use Prefs, enter your old password, and leave the
new password line blank. To turn password protection back on, you
return to Prefs and reenter your password.
Use of Password is free of charge. I encourage you to share it freely.

Known Bugs:
- If you turn on or off password protection using Prefs, Password's
icon will not reflect the new state until you tap on it. This is
because the current version of Prefs doesn't notify other apps
when it changes the system soup.
- Sometimes the icon will flicker briefly when it changes state. This
is only a cosmetic problem, it doesn't mean Password is having
trouble setting the state of password protection.
