    A text editor that can safely encrypt and decrypt with GPG

    Given that fedora has a broken gedit for this task, is there a simple lightweight editor that can do that? Guess knowing Markdown is out of the question.

    Code:
    #!/bin/bash
    gpg --decrypt-files $1.gpg
    gedit $1
    gpg --encrypt-files $1

    Emacs has built-in GPG support (Tools -> Encryption/Decryption).

    flyingfsck : that was very creative. Yet not connected with the issue.

    The King of Comedy: thank you. It works well. And, with some tweaks there is Markdown as well. And an outliner.

    distributer: yes, that's right. Geany does that too. And has syntax highlighting for markdown. Probably it's quite easy to set it work with pango as it has the project/compilation functions.
