Encrypt a whole directory in a single pass

[carl w spitzer]

As i remember there is a cross compatibility between TAR & WINZIP and
between *ZIP & GZIP.
There may even be TAR for Winblows if not it may be time to LILO as I do
between the two OS.
Find your local Linux Users group they can get you setup.  SUSE 8 is due
out 4-22.

On Windows, you will probably have to zip the directory first. On Linux,
I
recommend tar instead, because it keeps the permissions and ownership.
