On Linux and macOS, the history of entered commands is saved not only for the current session but also between reboots by default.

The problem concerns not only passwords but also file paths.

There is no information about the problem in the Warnings.

Hint: On Linux and macOS (for bash and zsh), saving in shell history can be prevented by adding a space before the command.

It may also be worth updating this section to add a warning that Kryptor itself cannot prevent the saving of the command history; this responsibility lies with the user.

Sorry for not responding to this. I somehow missed it. This is worth a mention; I'll try to update the tutorial at some point.
