Well, before coding this plugin, I did take a look at vim-gnupg, but it just
seemed to be trying to do too much.
vimcrypt has a much simpler interface for gnupg where you just provide the
gpg shell command yourself (minus input and output). Combined with the reuse
of generic code between the gpg and ssl part, you get a pretty minimalistic
plugin.
For comparison, vim-gnupg has over 1000 non comment lines of code, and these
are the results for vimcrypt:
43 autoload/gpg.vim
60 autoload/ssl.vim
157 autoload/vimcrypt.vim
4 plugin/gpg.vim
12 plugin/ssl.vim
35 plugin/vimcrypt.vim
14 autoload/vimcrypt/fold.vim
8 autoload/vimcrypt/util.vim
333 total
Especially for anything relating to security and cryptography, I tend to
prefer simpler and smaller code.
That being said, I have not tried out vim-gnupg so if there are any features
that you find are lacking in vimcrypt, please let me know.
