Hey guys,

If you like that pass is a simple bash script for managing secure
resources, you might like another little script I wrote called `ctmg`.
It's extremely simple, and allows you to have an encrypted file which
can be opened to a directory. If you're extra-nutty you could even put
your password store in a .ct file.

    zx2c4 at thinkpad ~ $ ctmg open example
    [#] cryptsetup luksOpen /home/zx2c4/example.ct ct_example
    Enter passphrase for /home/zx2c4/example.ct:
    [#] mkdir -p /home/zx2c4/example
    [#] mount /dev/mapper/ct_example /home/zx2c4/example
    [+] Opened /home/zx2c4/example.ct at /home/zx2c4/example

    zx2c4 at thinkpad ~ $ echo "super secret" > example/mysecretfile.txt

    zx2c4 at thinkpad ~ $ ctmg close example
    [#] umount /home/zx2c4/example
    [#] cryptsetup luksClose ct_example
    [#] rmdir /home/zx2c4/example
    [+] Closed /home/zx2c4/example.ct

It's got some nifty functionality.

If you're interested, head on over to:

And you can clone the repo with:
$ git clone https://git.zx2c4.com/ctmg/

Let me know what you think.
