Here is a shellscript I wrote to handle my master password file. It uses PGP for encryption.

Features:

  • You can use it just like you would use vipw(8) or visudo(8).
  • The data is never on the disk in an unencrypted state. There are no temporary files or anything like that containing plaintext.
  • Can (optionally) make full use of RCS(1) for version control.

You can download the script here.

Comment

  1. You might be interested in this VI script:
    http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=661
    It gives vi the ability to encrypt/decrypt PGP files itself.
