Opera, GPG and AutoHotkey

, , , ,

I like Opera Mail. If fits my needs almost perfectly with it's concept of filters and categories. But I - and many others - miss an integration of GnuPG.
To get at least some integration, I am creating an AutoHotkey script that will basically do what everyone who needs GPG with Opera has to do as yet: Copy&Paste. Just automatically.

How to use it:
  1. Install AutoHotkey and GnuPG from Gpg4win. You will also need a key manager like WinPT or GPA.
  2. Edit the script if you haven't installed GnuPG in the default directory.
  3. Now launch it. Press ctrl-g in any textbox and the content will be signed using your default key.

Hey how will this work on Linux, I already have GnuPG2 in it.

I also wonder if this could have been doing by using the javascript scripting language inside Opera.

I think javascript can't get Filesystem access, but I am not sure.

But javascript can communicate with a Server.
If this server is localhost.
Javascript can say the content of a textarea field to the server...
the server (PHP) can encrypt it and send the text back.

I don't know.... can M2 use javascript?
