crypto to generate key?

Post by sbostedor »

Ok, I"m just starting to play around with this crypto utility. I'd like to be able to create a key file using a command line. I"m not finding any help on this. How does it work?

crypto.exe

Post by scovel »

crypto.exe is in need of a refresh...

If you just run crypto with no parameters, it gives you a usage message:

Usage:crypto -h

List Medthods:crypto -l

Generate Key:crypto -k [keyfile]

Encrypt File:crypto -e [infile] [outfile] [keyfile]

Decrypt File:crypto -d [infile] [outfile] [keyfile]

So, to generate a new key, do:

crypto -k new.key

P.S. as I said, it really needs some attention. I'm not sure if the format of the key file is compatible with the newer plugins...Gotta find some time to revisit that.

Version 116 is out, and it includes a new crypto.exe that will create the key file for you. Its on the website.
