NAME

       gdecrypt — GUI for mapping/mounting encrypted partitions

SYNOPSIS

       gdecrypt [ENCRYPTED_DEVICE]  [MOUNTPOINT]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the gdecrypt program.

       gdecrypt  was  written for making the use of decrypted partitions under
       Linux more easy. It currently contains  a  GUI  written  in  PyGTK  for
       decrypting/mounting,  unmounting and encryption partitions or container
       files  and  it  supports  partitions  created   with   truecrypt   (see
       http://truecrypt.org for details) and LUKS.

       Note  that  truecrypt  <=  4.3a  is  required  for truecrypt supprt and
       cryptsetup with luks is required for luks support

OPTIONS

       ENCRYPTED_DEVICE           MOUNTPOINT
                 If used, gdecrypt starts  up  with  ENCRYPTED_DEVICE  in  the
                 partition  field  and  MOUNTPOINT  in the mountpoint field as
                 default.  By default, the partition field is  empty  and  the
                 mountpoint field points to /media.
