Hi Rick,

I don't think anyone has done this, but I would certainly welcome
someone taking up org-crypt.el, adding different options like you
suggest.  I'd be happy to work out the UI, but I do not know anything
about encryption or Emacs packages supporting it.

Is it possible to use a symmetric cipher with org-crypt.el? I'd really like to encrypt certain outlines and encode/decode them on several machines without worrying about managing public/private keys.

I can see how using public key crypto might be benefecial when sharing files between several parties, but for the case where a single user simply wants to synchronise org files between various machines (and never store/transmit sensitive data unencrypted) then a symmetric cipher seems preferable due to its lower overhead.

Has anyone done this?

R.
