[Orgmode] Re: org-crypt and org-mobile-crypt; user info?

Encrypt a password-table I keep in an org-file when saved to disk, while text would be plain in the buffer. (Best if it can be transparent without passwords, but that is not a must.) I don't have experience with org-mobile, but the following blog posting answers your first question: http://emacs.wordpress.com/2008/07/18/keeping-your-secrets-secret/ Note that you don't have to use org-crypt if the entire buffer is to be encrypted. Org-crypt is only necessary if you want to mix and match encrypted and non-encrypted org-mode items in the same file, for example if you want some items to show up in the agenda. Also, on Windows and Mac machines, you have to install GNUPG first. It's a separate download from the mainstream emacs distributions on both platforms. -- Chris ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

(Best if it can be transparent without passwords, but that is not a must.) With Emacs the best way IMHO to do it is use GnuPG/epg directly. You do it by simply naming a new file with an additional .gpg extension after the real one (.org in our case). So simply C-x C-f password-table.org.gpg RET and choose yourself as the recipient of the ciphertext There are two main advantage of this solution 1. you can access the table without running emacs (with an ssh client on your mobile?) by simply runnig gpg password-table.org on the command line. 2. Emacs runs gnupg completely seamlessly (if you run gpg-agent which caches the passphrases) -- Miłego dnia, Łukasz Stelmach ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
