AFAIK there is no dedicated crypto utility in BB. For quick and dirty
you could write a little shell script, but aside from that I do not
really understand what you are trying to do. What is the point in
encrypting files you just pulled from a public server? You do not put
them there, as it seems, so you cannot encrypt them before they are
uploaded. Do you want to secure the download channel like in an SSH
tunnel or scp/sftp, respectively? Please explain in more detail, even
though I suspect this might get off-topic. If it does, we can continue
this conversation in private, but first give it a go here on the list.
