We're decoding a file, not connecting to the server - this is a lower level of interaction. I now remove failed *encryption* passwords, but I can't (and shouldn't) care what happens with the contents of the files once they are decoded. So, I think, the right things will happen now. > Another thing I'll do is to use the cipher + the file name as > password key.

Should I call expand-file-name or should I consider ~/FILE and /home/USER/FILE fundamentally different? Ted
