Description: offline encryption/decryption using LUKS formats (program)
luksy implements encryption and decryption using LUKSv1 and LUKSv2
formats. Think of it as a clunkier cousin of gzip/bzip2/xz that doesn't
actually produce smaller output than input, but it encrypts, and that's
nice.
.
The main goal is to be able to encrypt/decrypt without the Linux device
mapper. Duplicating functions of cryptsetup that it can perform without
accessing the Linux device mapper is not a priority.
.
If you can cryptsetup, you should use that instead.
