ENKRYPT - Encrypt File 1.3
This utility encrypts one or more files with a user supplied password,
creating a new file or replacing the original file in the process.
Files encrypted in this way must be decrypted using the corresponding DEKRYPT
program from K-Tools Utilities.
USAGE:
ENKRYPT [sourcedir]sourcefiles [[targetdir][targetfiles]]
where: sourcedir is the location of the existing files, or the current
directory if blank
sourcefiles is the file to be encrypted, wildcards are accepted to
specify multiple files
targetdir is the destination location for the encrypted files, or
the same directory if blank
targetfiles is the new file name or names for the encrypted files,
wildcards are allowed for partial renaming of multiple
files, or blank if the names are to remain the same
Note that if no target directory or file name is specified then the original
files will be replaced by the encrypted versions.
EXAMPLES:
ENKRYPT MYFILE.TXT *.TXX will read MYFILE.TXT from the current
directory and write an encrypted copy to
MYFILE.TXX in the same directory
ENKRYPT *.TXT *.TXX will read all .TXT files from the current
directory and write encrypted copies to
*.TXX in the same directory
ENKRYPT \DIR1\*.* \DIR2 will read all files from the \DIR1
directory and write encrypted copies
with the same name to the \DIR2 directory
ENKRYPT MYFILE.DOC will encrypt MYFILE.DOC in the current
directory in place
ENKRYPT *.* will encrypt all files in the current
directory in place
When run, ENKRYPT will prompt you for a password, and then prompt again for
the password to be entered a second time to ensure there has been no typing
error. If the first entered password is blank, or the second password does
not match the first password, then the encryption will be aborted.
Note that the password is case sensitive, so the password "aaa" is not the
same as "AAA". Passwords may be up to 255 characters in length.
DO NOT FORGET THE PASSWORD. AN ENCRYPTED FILE CANNOT BE DECRYPTED WITHOUT IT.
Files may be encrypted more than once with different passwords for even
greater protection. Note that these files must then be decrypted using each
password in the opposite sequence as when they were encrypted.
Run ENKRYPT with no parameters or "?" or "/?" to display simple help and
registration information.
