Running From Source

If you would like to run Picocrypt from source, or an executable isn't available for your platform, you've come to the right place. Running from source is very simple, and I've made it very straightforward by writing specific instructions for each platform.

Windows

Install the Go Programming Language from here.
Download the source file Picocrypt.go from above.
Install Picocrypt's dependencies:

go get -u -v github.com/pkg/browser && go get -u -v github.com/zeebo/blake3 && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/sha3 && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/argon2 && go get -u -v github.com/AllenDang/giu && go get -u -v github.com/OpenDiablo2/dialog && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/blake2b && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/blake2s && go get -u -v github.com/atotto/clipboard && go get -u -v github.com/klauspost/reedsolomon && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/chacha20poly1305 && go get -u -v github.com/HACKERALERT/Picocypher/monocypher

Open a Command Prompt in the directory which contains Picocrypt.go and build Picocrypt from source:

go mod init Picocrypt && go mod tidy && go build -ldflags "-s -w -H=windowsgui -extldflags=-static" Picocrypt.go

You should now see Picocrypt.exe in your directory. Now, go and download the sdelete64.exe from the list above and place it in the same directory as Picocrypt.exe.
You are now complete and you can double click Picocrypt.exe to run Picocrypt.

macOS

Linux

Debian-based

On a Debian-based Linux distro, building Picocrypt from source is trivial. Just run this command, which automatically downloads Go, dependencies, builds Picocrypt, etc.:

sudo rm -rf Picocrypt-Builder && mkdir Picocrypt-Builder && cd Picocrypt-Builder && sudo apt-get install -y gcc make curl git tar wget xz-utils libx11-dev libxcursor-dev libxrandr-dev libxinerama-dev libxi-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libxxf86vm-dev libgtk-3-dev xdg-utils && sudo apt-get install -y libglx-dev || echo "" && sudo apt-get install -y xclip || sudo apt-get install xsel && wget https://golang.org/dl/go1.16.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz && sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.16.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz && export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin && go get -u -v github.com/pkg/browser && go get -u -v github.com/zeebo/blake3 && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/sha3 && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/argon2 && go get -u -v github.com/AllenDang/giu && go get -u -v github.com/OpenDiablo2/dialog && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/blake2b && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/blake2s && go get -u -v github.com/atotto/clipboard && go get -u -v github.com/klauspost/reedsolomon && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/chacha20poly1305 && go get -u -v github.com/HACKERALERT/Picocypher/monocypher && go mod init Picocrypt && wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HACKERALERT/Picocrypt/main/src/unstable/Picocrypt.go && go mod tidy && go build --ldflags="-s -w" Picocrypt.go && wget https://github.com/upx/upx/releases/download/v3.96/upx-3.96-amd64_linux.tar.xz && tar xf upx-3.96-amd64_linux.tar.xz && mv Picocrypt upx-3.96-amd64_linux && cd upx-3.96-amd64_linux && ./upx --best --lzma -9 -o Picocrypt-UPX Picocrypt && mv Picocrypt-UPX ../ && cd ../ && mv -v Picocrypt-UPX Picocrypt && mv Picocrypt ../ && cd ../ && sudo rm -rf Picocrypt-Builder && echo "Build complete! You can now run the file 'Picocrypt' in this directory with './Picocrypt' or by double clicking it in your file manager. You might have to 'chmod +x Picocrypt'. Enjoy!"

Other

If your distro is not Debian-based, don't worry! Building from source is still very simple.

Install the Go Programming Language from here.
Clone this repository using git clone or by downloading the master branch.
Open a terminal where Picocrypt.go is located (in the src directory).
Get Picocrypt's dependencies:

go get -u -v github.com/pkg/browser && go get -u -v github.com/zeebo/blake3 && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/sha3 && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/argon2 && go get -u -v github.com/AllenDang/giu && go get -u -v github.com/OpenDiablo2/dialog && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/blake2b && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/blake2s && go get -u -v github.com/atotto/clipboard && go get -u -v github.com/klauspost/reedsolomon && go get -u -v golang.org/x/crypto/chacha20poly1305 && go get -u -v github.com/HACKERALERT/Picocypher/monocypher

Build from source:

go mod init Picocrypt && go mod tidy && go build -ldflags "-s -w" Picocrypt.go

You're all done. You can now run the file Picocrypt.
