Description-en: Generic shell script compiler
shc creates a stripped binary executable from shell script.
.
shc encodes and encrypts a shell script and generates C source code with
the added expiration capability. Its main purpose is to protect your shell
scripts from modification or inspection. You can use it if you wish to
distribute your scripts but don't want them to be easily readable by other
people or if you need to hide passwords.
