Hello,
I am working on this task. I need some advice.
The Keychain Services allows you to store items in the Default Keychain, the Login Keychain (which may be the Default Keychain), or in a separate Keychain file. Should I use the Default Keychain or use an Emacs specific Keychain file? The benefit of using the Default Keychain is that the user should never be prompted to provide a password for the Keychain. However, keeping the passwords in a separate, Emacs specific, Keychain file would have the benefit of keeping the passwords used by Emacs separate from other passwords.
