Deathgrip is a Python-based program which is used to encrypt and decript plain text messages by converting letters to numbers and using a mathmatical algorithm based on the time, date, and random integers.
Deathgrip is ran in either encoder (-e) or decoder (-d) mode. You must specify an input file. You can optionally specify an output file. To encode "foo.txt" you could use:
deathgrip -e -i foo.txt
As it would by default send that output to "output.txt", you would decode the output with:
deathgrip -e -i output.txt -o bar.txt
Since we specified an output file for the decoder, the decoded message can be seen by opening "bar.txt"
A complete list of command line arguments can be seen with
deathgrip --help
The recommended debian based instalation method is as follows:
sudo $SHELL
cd /tmp/
git clone https://github.com/super-nathan/deathgrip.git
cd /tmp/deathgrip
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
cd ../
dpkg -i deathgrip_*_all.deb
exit
All other Linux users should
sudo $SHELL
cd /tmp/
git clone https://github.com/super-nathan/deathgrip.git
cd /tmp/deathgrip
cp deathgrip /usr/bin/
cp deathgrip.conf /etc/
exit
