In cases where you want to store some sensitive text in a snippet or local variable it might be useful to store this encrypted with a password. (ht: tpr)

  • Should be able to encrypt unicode texts
  • User will have to understand it only offers rudimentary security as decrypted texts are transferred to the clipboard and clipboard managers may keep this in memory - but just in case someone copies your bundle it offers some security. AHK could be used for a bruteforce/dictionary decrypting attempt.
  • Helper Gui would have to be made to allow user to input encrypted text to insert in the Bundle/Snippet editor.

Function(s):

@nnnik's Encrypt/Decrypt v2.1.0 @ http://ahkscript.org/boards/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1107&hilit=encrypt
