No More Secrets
Examples (TL;DR)
- Decrypt text after a keystroke:
echo "Hello, World!" | nms
- Decrypt output immediately, without waiting for a keystroke:
ls -la | nms -a
- Decrypt the content of a file, with a custom output color:
cat path/to/file | nms -a -f blue|white|yellow|black|magenta|green|red
- Clear the screen before decrypting:
command | nms -a -c
