.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBpencrypt\fP will apply an encryption algorithm to a file (or multiple files),
creating an encrypted version of each file which can only be recovered using
pdecrypt and the same password that was supplied to \fBpencrypt\fP. The
compressed versions are written to a file with the same name as the original,
but the extension .pe added to the filename, and the original file is removed
(unless the version with \fB\-o\fP is used, in which case you can encrypt only
one file, you specify the destination file name, and the original file is not
removed).
.PP
Note that if you are adding files to a Panda multifile (.mf file) with the
.BR multify (1)
command, it is not necessary to encrypt them separately; \fBmultify\fP has an
inline encryption option.
.PP
\fBpdecrypt\fP reverses the operation of a previous \fBpdecrypt\fP command.
It decrypts the contents of the named source file(s) and removes the .pe
extension. The encryption algorithm need not be specified; it can be
determined by examining the header of each encrypted file. The password
must match the encryption password exactly. If it does not, an error may
or may not be reported; but the file will not be decrypted correctly even
if no error is reported.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.BI "\-p " \"password\"
Specifies the password to use for encryption. There are no
restrictions on the password length or contents, but longer passwords
are more secure. If this is not specified, the user is prompted from
standard input.
.PP
The following options are only available to \fBpencrypt\fP. These settings
are automatically read from the header of the encrypted file by \fBpdecrypt\fP.
.TP
.B \-t
Read the file as a text file. This will automatically convert universal
end-of-line characters into a newline character, ascii 10.
.TP
.BI "\-a " \"algorithm\"
Specifies the particular encryption algorithm to use. The complete
set of available algorithms is defined by the current version of
OpenSSL. The default algorithm is taken from the encryption-
algorithm config variable.
.TP
.BI "\-k " key_length
Specifies the key length, in bits, for the selected encryption
algorithm. This only makes sense for those algorithms that support
a variable key length. The default value is taken from the
\fBencryption\-key\-length\fP config variable.
.TP
.BI "\-i " iteration_count
Specifies the number of times the password is hashed to generate
a key. The only purpose of this is to make it computationally
more expensive for an attacker to search the key space exhaustively.
This should be a multiple of 1,000 and should not exceed about 65
million; the value 0 indicates just one application of the hashing
algorithm. The default value is taken from the
\fBencryption\-iteration\-count\fP config variable.
