in the end I just used openssl to encrypt/decrypt a txt file and it worked fine:

Code:
 
print "abc123" > keyfile
print "testing 123" > plaintext.txt 
openssl aes-256-cbc -a -salt -in plaintext.txt -out plaintext.txt.enc -pass file:keyfile
rm plaintext.txt 
openssl aes-256-cbc -d -a -in plaintext.txt.enc -out plaintext.txt -pass file:keyhole
cat plaintext.txt

amaespipe

AMAESPIPE(8)						  System Administration Commands					      AMAESPIPE(8)

NAME

       amaespipe - wrapper program for aespipe

SYNOPSIS

       amaespipe

DESCRIPTION

       amaespipe requires aespipe, uuencode and gpg to work. Aespipe is available from : http://loop-aes.sourceforge.net

       amaespipe will search for the aespipe program in the following directories: /usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin.

       amaespipe is called by amcrypt for Amanda data encryption.

       amaespipe is based on aespipe's bzaespipe program. It calls aespipe to encrypt data using AES256 as the encryption and SHA256 as the hash
       function. GPG key should be stored in $AMANDA_HOME/.gnupg/am_key.gpg.  amaespipe reads passphrase from file descriptor 3. During
       decryption, amaespipe autodects encryption type and hash function from the encrypted image.
