<title>Stored passwords</title>
<p>You can configure <app>Web</app> to save all your passwords, and then

password. Your saved passwords are stored in
<guiseq><gui style="menu">Web</gui>
<gui style="menuitem">Personal Data</gui>
<gui style="tab">Passwords</gui></guiseq>.</p>
<section id="edit-preferences">
<title>Edit your preferences</title>
<p><app>Web</app> will offer to remember your password every time you log in
to a particular website, if you have modified your preferences suitably.</p>
<steps>

webpage asking you whether you would like the current password to be saved.
Select <gui style="button">Store password</gui> to store the password and
it will be saved in <guiseq><gui style="menu">Web</gui>
<gui style="menuitem">Personal Data</gui><gui style="tab">Passwords</gui>

<gui style="checkbox">Show passwords</gui> checkbox at the bottom.</p>
