I'm thinking how use that in my code.
You can note in README that the password can be hashed this way:

$ irb
irb> require 'digest/md5'
irb> Digest::MD5.hexdigest('stewy')

or simmilar using other environments like Perl.

Yeah, upgrading is in app distribution phase.

I've questions:

1. Is there a simple way how to display in klone application the value
in VERSION file?  Maybe I overlooked that.
2. When running klone application I can give it -V option to display
version of KLone used.  It will be helpfull if it can also display
version of application. For instance
  $ kloned --app-version
  1.3.15
