Alternative to 'cryptsetup.sh' ('fastdm')?
 

I wrote a script to use as an alternative to 'cryptsetup.sh' a few months ago and I've finally gotten around to posting it. 'cryptsetup.sh' is useful, however I don't like all the overhead required for the application I'm using it for. The script I wrote, called 'fastdm', only has a few basic functions: looping; unlooping; checking for a loop; and determining underlying devices or images. I just posted it this morning, actually:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/e...r.bz2?download

I originally wrote this for use with a series of encrypted volume management scripts, but I chose to release it separately in case someone else is looking for an alternative.

It would be nice if you had provided the link to the project page rather than a link to the download manager.

Sorry. The project page doesn't really say anything about it since the project is a series of small script projects. This is just one of them. Here is the main project page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/extport-ta0kira/

The script package doesn't have very many files, so it isn't difficult to get through.
