Subject: Encrypting/Decrypting files wirh ruby.

I have been searching the internet to find a way to encrypt files and
then decrypt the back.. What I found is how to encrypt a string of text
and then decrypt it back.

For exampe you have a
   plaintext = "some text"

you encrypt it into a ciphertext and then how to decrypt it back.

What I want to do is to encrypt a whole file, files like .doc, .docx,
.xls, .pps and so on. Basically any file either this is a document, a
photo or whatever.

Any help on how to achieve this. I found a library 'ChilKat' but you
need to purchase a license to do this.

Any help is much appreciated!
