AngelCrypt Version 1.0
FAQ 01/15/2001



Q:I have a directory in my drive C which I called c_source, this directory
  contains multiple directories, how can I encrypt the c_source directory 
  and all its subdirectories?

A:Type in the command line: angel c_source -d, this is equivalent to 
  encrypt all files and directories under c_source or c:\c_source, you can 
  also type in angel c:\c_source.





Q:I have a file named msocket.c, after encryption the file reads msocket.c.jrc,
  what I did is I rename the msocket.c.jrc to msocket.e, now when I decrypt
  it, the system did not restore the file to its original msocket.c, why?

A:The system cannot restore the original extension of the file because it has
  no features to do it. I didn't include it because I think its not necessary
  and this is not a zip program. The only cure for this is decrypt the file
  then rename it to its original extension.  The system can decrypt and restore
  it to its original state but not its extension or filename.





Q:Is it okay if I remove the .jrc extension on a encode file?

A:Yes its completely okay as long that the original extension is
  not modified, the system can still decrypt it. 





Q:I cannot find the help when I type -h, "message is cannot find angel.man"

A:angel.man is the manual file for the system, this is a text file and must 
  be place along with the angel working directory, you can get this file
  in the distribution.





Q:I did not invoke the flag -d, during decryption, will this overwrite 
  the original file?

A:Yes





Q:I encrypt a file with -d flag, it didn't remove the original file.

A:You're probably encrypting a read only file, change the attribute 
  of the file into a normal. refer to the angel manual or type 
  angel -h for the valid file attributes.





Q:Why console mode instead of Windows?

A:Simple, I dont have time to program it in Windows and console is nice. :)



Q:Why AngelCrypt?

A:I like Angels, they are good guardians, and again I like the name Angel...Angel...
