An easy and quick way to encrypt (and decrypt) sensitive files on your computer. The filename is static, so don't forget to set it (on line 14)!

# Based on http://ejohn.org/blog/keeping-passwords-in-source-control/
# 
# John Resig needed a way to keep sensitive data (e.g. config files with
# passwords) out of source control. So he decided to encrypt the sensitive data.
#
# I decided to modify the script so it's purpose is quickly encrypting or
# decrypting any sensitive file you have on your computer.
#
# Usage: make encrypt
#        make decrypt
