The Esync Program

esync0 is a program to produce are encrypted files which can be efficiently transferred using the rsync algorithm, see esync-whitepaper.html

This is regarded as being a prototype for a real esync (or upgraded rsync with esync algorithm built in) which will both encrypt and transfer the files.

esync0

An initial prototype program is esync0. This creates encrypted files locally which can later be transferred using tranditional rsync.

Syntax:

esync0 --encrypt keyname.key sourcefile destinationfile.e

esync0 --decrypt keyname.key sourcefile.e destinationfile

esync0 --dump file

This program is under development and will be released under the GPL in the near future.
