- MacEncrypt

-
- This is version 2.0 of the popular MacEncrypt program. It includes an
- enhanced set of features while maintaining the simplicity of the
- original version. Now multiple files can be saved in a single encrypted
- archive and files can be "shredded" for extra security.
-
- MacEncrypt is a program that uses the Data Encryption Standard (DES)
- to encrypt macintosh files with a user supplied password. This protects
- your data from being read by anyone who doesn't know the password.
-
- MacEncrypt is easy to use. You can select files for encryption using
- standard file dialog boxes or using the "drag and drop" technique from
- the finder. MacEncrypt is just 30 kBytes long and takes only 128 kBytes
- of RAM. It is System 7.0 and 32-bit compatible.
-
- There is now a single MacEncrypt executable program that works on
- all platforms (at least all I've tested). MacEncrypt will automatically
- sense the environment and take advantage of available features.
-
- To install MacEncrypt, simply drag the application icon to a folder you
- wish to use it from. It is very convenient to install it on the desktop
- near the trash can so you can just drag files to it for encryption.
- MacEncrypt will run suitably from a floppy diskette. Two versions of
- the documentation for MacEncrypt have been included. One is a
- formatted Microsoft Word document. The other is a simple text file.
-
- MacEncrypt is shareware. Feel free to distribute it wherever you like.
- This includes uploading it to bulletin boards and archive sites. Just
- be sure to include the entire package with this document unchanged.
- If you use MacEncrypt for more than a month (30 days) you are
- obligated to send $10.00 (US) to:
