If you want to bypass to guided input you can pass in 3 arguments and it will run from there ex.currency [baseCurrency] [exchangeToCurrency] [amountBeingExchanged] so a valid use case would be currency USD EUR 12.35

Encryption & Decryption

A wrapper for openssl that allows for quickly encrypting and decrypting files

Encryption Details

Key is salted before creation
Password is never in plain text, and OpenSSL generates key based on password
