Hello!

Nothing about KeePass, but recently I was wondering if I could write a software for deriving the keys from the master secret and seed (i.e. domain name or whatever).

Here is what I have came with:

* https://github.com/indutny/derivepass * https://github.com/indutny/scrypt

It is using dump scrypt implementation (see the second link), and should be pretty easy to verify by cross-reading the source and the spec. Also, there is a boilerplate iOS application which is using `derivepass`'s derivation function and `scrypt` too.

Please let me know if you have any questions!
