I'm not really interested in setting up a whole suite of stuff with
keyfiles and so on, and I don't need a public/private key setup, just
something quick and dirty with a single secret key for encryption and
decryption which is nevertheless reasonably strong.
Whats wrong with openssl ?
openssl des3 -in test.txt -out test.txt.enc
or
openssl aes-256-cbc -in test.txt -out test.txt.enc
This is only as strong as your passphrase. Using something like GPG has
other advantages since the private key can be kept in a separate location
from the encrypted file.
