  password <- getPassword (Service "my-application")
                          (Username "Joe")
  case password of
    (Just (Password pw)) ->
      putStrLn ("Your password is " ++ pw)
    Nothing ->
    putStrLn "No password found"

import System.Keyring

main = setPassword (Service "my-application")
                   (Username "Joe")
