Some pointers on a Secure Text Editor tool:
- Check gnupg mail archive [1]
- LockNote from Steganos (windows only)
- Handy secure editor that saves creates self-decrypting (exe) documents (using AES-256)
- Security issue: An .exe file is an invitation to trojan and virii. If attacker has access to encrypted file, he can change the .exe to include a keylogger/mailer inside, or simply write the content of decrypted file somewhere on the system for latter retrieval. This is the case for instance if encrypted document is on a memory stick. Vim plugin below is not vulnerable to that attack.
- vim gnupg plugin
