I'd like to see this. Right now I'm using ccrypt
(http://ccrypt.sourceforge.net/) with the accompanying emacs package
jka-compr-ccrypt. My set-up is definitely workable, but it would be
nice to have something integrated within emacs.
As for how I'd like it to work, I'd like more or less what John W
describes -- encryption and decryption by a keystroke or short series
of keystrokes. I'd like to be prompted twice for a password or pass
phrase the first time I encrypt a file, and then to be asked for a
password or pass phrase when I open an encrypted file. I'd like it
to remember that password (assuming it's encrypted) so that I don't
have to re-enter it when I re-save an encrypted file. Of course, I'm
largely ignorant of how encryption works -- the FAQ on the ccrypt page
addresses some of the concerns knowledgeable people have. So I don't
know how easy/hard it is to do these things.
