Description-en: Free and simple TrueCrypt Implementation based on dm-crypt
tcplay is a free (BSD-licensed), pretty much fully featured (including
multiple keyfiles, cipher cascades, etc) and stable TrueCrypt implementation.
.
This implementation supports mapping (opening) both system and normal
TrueCrypt volumes, as well as opening hidden volumes and opening an outer
volume while protecting a hidden volume. There is also support to create
volumes, including hidden volumes, etc.
.
Since tcplay uses dm-crypt it makes full use of any available hardware
encryption/decryption support once the volume has been mapped.
