Command line encryption tool

I am looking for a command-line encryption utility which allows passphrase to be supplied with the syntax. I checked Google and Bing but found few utilities that use Blowfish or some obsolete algorithms.

Any utility which offers few modern algorithms and supports multiple encryption as well.

 

You can do that with GnuPG.

Code:

gpg -c --batch --passphrase 123456789 -o foo.gpg foo

But do wipe command history afterwards

 

I tried GPG but it opens a dialog box to enter passphrase.

** Edited **

Thanks the syntax you provided worked. I tried gpg -help but didn't find those options.

 

Any command-line tool which supports cascaded encryption?

 

Another solution:
OpenSSL

Code:

# provide password on command line
openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -salt -in file.txt -out file.enc -pass pass:password

# provide password in a file
openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -salt -in file.txt -out file.enc -pass file:/path/to/secret/password.txt

Or the command-line version of 7z:

Code:

7z.exe a -ppassword secret.7z secret.txt
7z.exe a -ppassword secret.7z secret.txt -mhe
