A new library called pagesign (Python-age-sign) has been released on PyPI [1].
It covers similar functionality to python-gnupg, but uses the modern encryption tool
age [2] and the modern signing tool minisign [3]. The initial release allows you to:
* Create and manage identities (which are containers for the keys used for
encryption/decryption and signing/verification).
* Encrypt and decrypt files to multiple recipients.
* Sign files and verify signatures.
This release has been signed with my code signing key:
Recent changes to PyPI don't show the GPG signature with the download links.
An alternative download source where the signatures are available is at [4].
Documentation is available at [5].
As always, your feedback is most welcome (especially bug reports [6],
patches and suggestions for improvement, or any other points).
