how about use the AES encrypt/decrypt Text bundle actions, and bind the encrypt action to cmd-S for a certain type of text-files (let's say with .sec extension)? Not as automatic, but I guess you could modify the commands a bit and have the AES decryption module store the password in a temporary global variable, and have the encryption command triggered by cmd-S use that password...
So u open the .sec file, hit a key combination to decrypt it, and when u save it (using cmd-S) it encrypts using the same pass, saves, and u have to decrypt it again before using it (could also use the same pass if it exists..?)
That's as smooth as I can get it, at least in theory... maybe someone cares to elaborate a bit? Keeping a plain text file would be easier than managing an encrypted disk image, but I'm not sure how easily the global variable could be accessed...

Hi
I'm looking for a way to easily encrypt and decrypt a text file. It should do the following:
- On open, ask for the passphrase and decrypt the document
- Display the document plain text, allow edits
- On save, automatically encrypt the document, but leave the
unencrypted doc open.
I'd use this to store passwords.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot!
