Crypto Text - 1.9.5

Crypto Text is a text editor based on the fictional OrdoEmacs editor Randy uses in Cryptonomicon. The basic principle is that if you need to edit a highly confidential text file, you don't ever want to write that file to disk in plain format, even temporarily. There are lots of programs that will encrypt your files, but this isn't good enough if you are as paranoid as Randy.

As well as being a cryptographic text editor, Crypto Text can encrypt any piece of text for you and place it into an "output window" where it can be easily copied to the clipboard. This can be useful if you want to encrypt a piece of text and send it in an email, for example - obviously the person you are sending it to will need a copy of Crypto Text as well as the password used.
