I found an editor, Notepad + +, which has the ability to encrypt the
content of the file you are working. Can you tell me if you feel
reliable as the encryption system?

You didn't really look at the code, did you?
I just went for a quick look to see if the code at least made sure the
memory used to hold the key was erased after encryption, but what I
found was much, much worse.
The "encryption" function consists of:

i.e., it is the worst N-time pad I've ever seen.
The password can probably be recovered "by hand" by just looking at the
pattern to figure the password length and then looking at the
"unconverted" characters that are the same as the password at that
position. Breaking this with a computer is not even funny.

Thanks

has the ability to encrypt text and files?

OK...THIS is the reason I RECOMMENDED...read my post again..
Open Source which can be pear reviewed...
You reviewed it...now we know...

Might be overkill, but it's a fine, time tested editor with strong native
encryption (blowfish), and there's both graphical and console versions
available for various operating systems even though it's more of a geeky
unix editor...
There's also a more "windowish" feeling (non-modal) version of Vim called
Cream. It handles encryption using several methods, including calling
GnuPG to do the dirty work. :)

Hm, Ok.
I didn't review the editor nor the source code.
If I could make something easy using instant GPG encryption/decryption,
would there be any interest? (since there are so many alternatives)
Just someone who's interested.

GPG_Decrypt:
Write('Password: '); ReadLn(USERINPUT);
if (USERINPUT=empty) then goto CleanUp;
Tmp := Format('--no-options --no-default-keyring --dry-run
--passphrase "%s" "%s"', [USERINPUT, FullFilePath(5)]);
ShellExecute(MainWnd, 'open', PChar(FullFilePath(4)), PChar(Tmp), nil,
SW_HIDE);
Sleep(1000);
if not FileExists(FullFilePath(6)) then goto GPG_Decrypt;
