Pass Encrypt addin #90

Open WisniowskiPiotr opened 6 years ago

WisniowskiPiotr commented 6 years ago

Added note addin "encpass" which encrypts selected text with user entered password (ctrl+e). Clicking on tag will ask user for password and tries to decrypt text. My intention is to cerate addin so I did not modify any existing code. Also I am learning using git in a community so please msg me if You have and remarks regarding my pull or code. Best regards.

Hi Piotr

This seems like a fabulous idea. It would make me happier to synchronise my notes via a third party file sharing service if I could encrypt sensitive notes. Is that your motivation?

You might want to consider creating an installable addin so that users can install it on current versions, without having to wait for a Tomboy release. I'm not familiar with how to build one myself but this project might help you.

Thanks.

Hi

This is exactly my motivation. This installable thing is already done. All you need is to build this fork, find appropriate dll and paste it in tompoy addin folder. I will be starting my website shortly and I can put there this dll for download if You are interested. This already works for Linux and Windows. I do not have Mac to test it.

I would like to merge this with official project but responsible people are afk it seems.

Thanks.
