AES is a cipher for a single block. For files larger than the block size, you'll need to use it in some sensible mode like AES-GCM. All modes of course require a high-entropy key and some of them require a well-chosen nonce or IV (initialization vector). Please use caution in making these decisions! --dkg _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
