I'm new to org-crypt, but I was able to make it work last week. First, I created a PGP key using seahorse (not required, but make thinks easier).
Then I put the code below in my .emacs file --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (require 'org-crypt) (org-crypt-use-before-save-magic) ; Encrypts everything with the crypt tag ; when the buffer is saved (setq org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance (quote ("crypt"))) (setq org-crypt-key "XXXXXXXX") --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- where the XXXXXXXX is the ID of my PGP key in seahorse. With this all headings with the tag crypt will be encrypted when the file is saved. If I want to see the content I run the command org-decrypt-entry (or org-decrypt-entries to decrypt all headings in the file). When I save the file again everything will be encrypted. I'm only asked for the password of my PGP key when I want to decrypt a heading. If you do don't want to create a PGP key then I think you will need to set a property in the heading with the crypt key and org will ask you for a password to encrypt the heading. -- Darlan At Thu, 21 Oct 2010 21:43:10 +0200, Magnus Nilsson <magnus.nils...@alumni.chalmers.se> wrote: > > [1 <multipart/alternative (7bit)>] > [1.1 <text/plain; ISO-8859-1 (7bit)>] > Dear subscribers, > > I haven't found much information about org-crypt and org-mobile-crypt.
