shc is limited at best -- if you really want to encrypt it, you're better off using a different language than shell script. As such, shc is what I would recommend; getting somebody to help you troubleshoot the shc problem would seem more fruitful than trying to find a complete replacement for it. Which platform is this on? Can you identify which shell command(s) are responsible for the hang?
