https://github.com/terrapane/aescrypt_c ... /README.md

If installed on Linux/Unix or Mac, there is also a man page.

Finally, you can type "aescrypt -h" to see all options.

AES Crypt 4.3.1 Released with OpenBSD Support

AES Crypt Users,

AES Crypt 4.3.1 was just released. This is a very minor update, with changes primarily focused on adding support for OpenBSD.

That's really all. It's just a small follow-on to the previously announced AES Crypt 4.3 release.
