+TrueCrypt
+
+Free open-source disk encryption software for Windows Vista/XP, Mac OS X,
+and Linux Main Features:
+
+* Creates a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mounts it as
+a real disk.  
+* Encrypts an entire partition or storage device such as USB flash drive
+ or hard drive.  
+* Encrypts a partition or drive where Windows is installed (pre-boot 
+authentication).  
+* Encryption is automatic, real-time (on-the-fly) and transparent.  
+* Parallelization and pipelining allow data to be read and written as 
+fast as if the drive was not encrypted.  
+* Provides plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to 
+reveal the password:
+	Hidden volume (steganography) and hidden operating system.
+* Encryption algorithms: AES-256, Serpent, and Twofish. Mode of
+operation: XTS.
+
+Further information regarding features of the software may be found in
+the documentation.
+
+Since version 6.1a of TrueCrypt, a number of header files from RSA
+Laboratories are required during the compilation. I've separated the
+installation of these into a separate package called cryptoki rather
+than have this script extract a separate, isolated archive. 
+
+Thus, to build this version of TrueCrypt, you also need cryptoki, 
+and to run Truecrypt you need wxGTK. Both are available at 
+SlackBuilds.org.
+
+This script does not create the static GUI build seen elsewhere (see
+above for required runtime dependency of wxGTK or similar).
