A terminal authenticator. It shows the current TOTP code for each of your accounts and a bar counting down to the next rotation, refreshed every second.

go run .Or build a binary with go build -o totp . and run ./totp.
With no config the app shows demo accounts so you can see how it looks. Point it at your own accounts as described below.
The app reads accounts from the first file it finds. It checks the path in
$TOTP_FILE, then accounts.txt in the working directory. If neither exists it
looks under your user config directory.
Each line is either an otpauth:// URI or a pipe-separated shorthand, and lines
that start with # are ignored.
otpauth://totp/Example:alice@example.com?secret=JBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP&issuer=Example

Your secrets are the keys to your accounts. Keep the accounts file readable only
by you, and do not commit it anywhere. This repository ignores accounts.txt so
it cannot be added by accident, and generated codes never leave your machine.
