Re: [Orgmode] Symmetric encryption with org-crypt.el?

[Carsten Dominik]

Hi Rick,

I don't think anyone has done this, but I would certainly welcome
someone taking up org-crypt.el, adding different options like you
suggest.  I'd be happy to work out the UI, but I do not know anything
about encryption or Emacs packages supporting it.
