A comment on PurritoBin: Ultra fast, minimalistic, encrypted command line paste-bin.

The author calls this "command line" pastebin. It uses curl and openssl to encrypt and submit. However it uses a Javascript-enabled web broswer to do the retrieval and decryption. Can we use the command line to do the retrieval and decryption?

This way, we are not restricted to the ciphers supported by the "Crypto-JS" NodeJS package. Not meaning to take anything away from the venerable Crypto-JS library of "standards" including RC4 and TripleDES.

You have missed the "meow" command.

No, that is an incorrect assumption. The meow command does not decrypt data. The author is suggesting that users resort to using a web browser and Crypto-JS in order to decrypt.
