Where can i get aescrypt_keygen command line tool for mac?

This link AES Crypt - Console (Mac x86) in http://www.aescrypt.com/download/

Doesn't have that

Basically what i am trying is to generate a key file

aescrypt_keygen -p password -k secret.key

is there any way to generate a key file - i am not looking at encrypting/decrypting at this point - i want to do them later after generating the secret.key

It might not be in the Mac release. It likely isn't. We've had some issues updating the Mac code, but I don't recall what those issues were, exactly... Some issue with the way the packages were constructed.

This is on the to-do list. Hopefully, soon.

That said, I'm not sure we'll be updating the PPC version. There seems to be declining numbers using it and we have nobody who can compile code for that platform. Does anyone care?
