Re: Electrum - Bitcoin client for the common users (friendly and instant)
I am trying to setup electrum 1.01-e (windows flatfly compact build) on Win7 64bit.
Is it possible to generate a private key on brainwallet.org using a pass phrase and then using it in electrum instead of taking the default (12 random words) key?
I tried generating a key on brainwallet that contained letters/numbers/symbols and then chose restore when launching electrum.
I entered the same pass-phrase in the "Seed or mnemonic" field, left the gap limit to the default 5, clicked OK and got the error "I cannot decode this" then the client aborts. When I relaunch it, there is no prompt to create or restore a wallet.
Also is there a way to access the command line or help files from the windows GUI?
Sorry about the newb questions, I'm sure I'm missing something obvious
