On Linux that's easy.

To encrypt:
$ find <your_path> -type f -execdir gpg -r <keyID> -e {} \;

To decrypt:
$ find <your_path> -type f -iname '*.gpg' -execdir gpg {} \;
(Please note, that you'll be prompted for the passphrase for every file,
unless you use gpg-agent with passphrase caching or provide passphrase
on the command line.)
