[O] "Encrypting org Files" tutorial: two changes?

[Ramon Diaz-Uriarte]

Dear All,

Two comments about the the "Encrupting org Files" tutorial
(http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/encrypting-files.html), which might
be specific to Debian.


1. In section "Encrypting the Whole File Using EasyPG" it says

"If you want to encrypt the whole file using gnupg, but still have the
decrypted file recognized as an org file, you should make: " (...)

however, as far as I can tell, with both Emacs 23 and Emacs 24 anything
with a name whatever.org.gpg will be automatically recognized as an org
file even if one does not use that first line.  Without that first line,
however, it does prompt for a key whenever the file is saved.


Maybe this section could be rewritten as:

"Any file saved with the .org.gpg extension will be recognized as an org
file when decrypted. If you do not want to be prompted for a password
every time you save a file, add .... to the first line of the file".



2. At least in Debian

(require 'epa-file)
(epa-file-enable)

are not needed.


Best,


R.



P.D. Versions of Emacs where I just verified it:

Emacs 23: 23.4.1, from emacs23 23.4+1-4 in Debian.
Emacs 24, 24.3.50.1, from emacs-snapshot 2:20121217-1  in Debian

Nevertheless, these features have worked this way for quite some time (at
least one or two years).
