Recent releases


Changes: An impressive improvement was made in the speed of I/O: about 300% perceivable improvement. A new callback API was added to monitor the progress of encrypt and decrypt operations. The -v option for verbose output was added. Previously, -v was attached to the --version option. Now, for seeing the version, you have to use the long format only --version.


Changes: Version 2.0 had a major bug: when accepting a password in interactive mode, it asked for it only once. This has been fixed, and it is highly recommended that 2.0 users upgrade to this version. The -f parameter has been added to force overwriting the destination file. The internal design has also been modified, and now there is a clean API which allows the WizCrypt engine to be embedded inside any application. The WizCrypt project page has documentation on using this API.


Changes: Passwords can be given interactively now. A new exit status 7 has been added for failure when run in headless mode and a password is expected interactively. This release runs on JRE 6 and above.


Changes: This release adds program exit values for enhanced scriptability. It fixes minor message display bugs.
