FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

This gist, based in part on a gist by Brian Hartvigsen, allows you to export from Authy your TOTP tokens you have stored there.
Those can be "standard" 6-digits / 30 secs tokens, or Authy's own version, the 7-digits / 10 secs tokens.
