encrypt-region

An Emacs package for encrypting and decrypting arbitrary regions.

Getting started

• Get encrypt-region.
• Add the following to your .emacs config:

(require 'encrypt-region)

• Set your 32-hexchar secret key:

(setq encrypt-region-key "<your key here>")

;; Example: (setq encrypt-region-key "616461746120646e6d20726f20656164") 

• Encrypt a region using M-x encrypt-region-encrypt
• Decrypt an encrypted region using M-x encrypt-region-decrypt

Notes

Authenticated encryption is used by default using ChaCha20-Poly1305 from GnuTLS.
