#!/bin/bash
# Filename: private.sh
# Version: 011210
# Author: robz
# Toggle the mounting and unmounting of the default ecryptfs ~/.Private
# directory. If you're set up with a Private/.Private directory that is.
# https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory - all you need.
# Run it from a launcher if you like, Type: Application, Name: Private,
# Command: /home/user/.scripts/private.sh, Comment: Private Directory on/off.
# You can use the encrypted directory for email and browser profiles, just
# move the relevant directory eg. /home/*user*/.evolution to /home/*user*
# /Private/.evolution and replace it with a symbolic link. Make sure the
# link has exactly the same name eg. ".evolution" not "Link to .evolution"
# You'll need some padlock icons for the notification.
