+# qGPG
+
+Slightly easier encryption using private/public key pairs
+
+Depends on python-gnupg, and gpg
+
+Install with pip or pipx, from packaged url, or straight from repository:
+
+- https://six9.net/py/qgpg/current.tar.gz
+- git+https://bitbucket.org/MoonQ/qgpg
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+- Generate keys:
+    - `qgpg --keygen --key ./path/mykey --name "user@name"`
+    - This will create private and public keys, mykey and mykey.pub
+    - Share the public key to someone who will encrypt data to you
+- Encrypt file:
+    - `qgpg --encrypt --key ./mykey.pub ./plain_file.txt ./encrypted_file.txt.gpg`
+- Encrypt all files recursively in a folder:
+    - `qgpg --key ./mykey.pub -r --encrypt ./in_folder/`
+    - `qgpg --key ./mykey.pub -r --encrypt ./from_folder/ ./to_another_folder/`
+- Decrypt all files with the private key:
+    - `qgpg --key ./mykey -r --decrypt ./encrypted_folder/`
+- Using passhprase in a variable:
+    - `GPGPASS=mysecretpassword qgpg --key ./mykey --decrypt file.gpg file.txt`
+- Symmetric encryption:
+    - `GPGPASS=mysecretpassword qgpg --encrypt file.txt file.gpg`
