@bascule why didn’t they just use AES?
Re: vim encryption, it's probably not a good idea to use Blowfish at all anymore (Twofish is fine): http://iacr.org/archive/fse2007/45930168/45930168.pdf …

@nzkoz good question! -
@bascule is there some linux-freedom thing which sees them using blowfish rather than AES? I really don’t get it... -
@nzkoz I would guess it might be related to the fact the original author didn't have any idea what he was doing
