Description Frank Krömmelbein 2014-06-15 09:32:12 UTC
zuluCrypt
zuluCrypt is a front end to cryptsetup and tcplay and it is a tool that make it easy to manage LUKS,PLAIN and TRUECRYPT encrypted volumes through a GUI and a simpler to use CLI interface.

zuluCrypt can manage encrypted volumes residing in regular files,LVM and mdraid devices as well as regular block devices and partitions.

zuluMount
zuluMount is a front end to zuluCrypt and its meant to be used as a general purpose tool that mount and unmount zuluCrypt supported encrypted volumes as well as unencrypted volumes and it can be used as a substitute to udisks,pmount and related tools.

zuluMount-gui is ideal for use as a desktop environment/file manager independent tool for mounting/unmounting encrypted and unencrypted volumes.

Thank you very much Julian!
Installation went smoothly. I will now play a little with it.
Do you have plans to take over the program into the normal portage tree?

Not sure. Portage workflow is still broken, so I avoid committing too much to it, unless it's something a lot of people use.

Overlays allow for more focused work and are often ahead of portage in terms of freshness.
