We have a patch for Konsole that encrypts the file in disk: https://phabricator.kde.org/D16134 It's not landed, but maybe you can take a look on it to see if you feel it would be a good alternative for what you are describing?

Thanks! I've abandoned that patch; it would better to use an OS encrypted folder/file/HD (In reply to Kurt Hindenburg from comment #3) > I've abandoned that patch; it would better to use an OS encrypted > folder/file/HD This would be less secure (than a random security key per Konsole tab) because a user typically has access to the encrypted files, therefore the Konsole scrollback can be recovered by an attacker in a case when the encryption key is revealed. > random security key
I meant: random encryption [private] key

I would agree that perhaps instead of lines, the user could specify MBs. However, I'm sure if that's possible or how complex that would be. |
