You don't have to un-encrypt the script - just execute it.

Smilie Test it, and see for yourself that's not true.
If you make an script with "vi -x", then you won't be able to run it unless you un-encryp it. I've tested it. If I'm wrong, show me.

Grial is correct, as far as the shell is concerned the file will be garbage binary content unless it is decrypted, and in order to prevent further inaccuracy or further slide into flaming I am closing the thread.
