I'm using the following scripts, but not on the Ben:
<++> blfd
#!/bin/sh
pass=$1
shift
exec openssl enc -d -bf-cbc -a -pass pass:$pass
<-->
<++> blfe
#!/bin/sh
pass=$1
shift
exec openssl enc -e -bf-cbc -a -pass pass:$pass
<-->
<++> pwedit
#!/bin/sh
file=~/path/to/password/file
pass=$1
shift
temp=`mktemp -t passwd.XXXXXXXXXX`
blfd "$pass" < $file > "$temp" || exit 1
$EDITOR "$temp"
cp -p ${file} ${file}~
blfe "$pass" < "$temp" > $file
rm -P "$temp"
<-->
This script opens an encrypted file, allows you to edit it, and then
replaces the original file with the edited file.
It is the least fancy thing you can do, but it will be the thing I
first experiment with...
