Description: # Path Encoder
        ## Description
        This application allows encryting files and folder using AES. The content of a file gets encrypted using AES. The
        name of a file or folder gets obfuscated. *Hence be aware that file- and folder-names can be reverse-engineered
        with minimal effort.*
        
        The tool is essentially a PYTHON 3 script. When installing the package through PIP, a shell script (OS X and Linux) or
        BATCH file (MS Windows) is installed as well. This allows easy use of the tool from command line.
        
        ### Installation
        The package can be installed directly through PIP:
        
        ```
        pip install pathcrypter 
        ```
         
        ## Usage
        The tool comes with a shell script (OS X and Linux) or batch file (MS Windows):
        ```
        pathcrypter [-h] [-p PASSWORD] [-e] [-d] [-n] path
        ```
         
        The script takes the following command line arguments:
        * **-e**: Encrypt the file or folder
        * **-d**: Decrypt the file or folder
        * **-n**: Ignore errors
        * **-p**: Password to be used for encryption/decryption. *Do note that providing the password as a command line
        argument is insecure. This option is available primarily for scripting/automation use.* If no password is provided
        using this argument, the password is asked at runtime. This prevents the password from being displayed (readable).
        * **path**: The path to the file or folder to be encrypted/decrypted. When specifying a folder, the entire folder content
        gets processed (recursively).
