keybase:tldr:1f2d0

The command "keybase encrypt" is used to encrypt a file using the Keybase encryption system. Here is a breakdown of the different components of this command:

• "keybase encrypt": This is the command itself that tells Keybase to perform the encryption operation.
• "--infile ${input_file}": This option specifies the input file that you want to encrypt. "${input_file}" is a placeholder for the actual file path you provide. Replace it with the location and name of the file you want to encrypt.
• "--outfile ${output_file}": This option specifies the output file where the encrypted data will be saved. Similar to the previous option, "${output_file}" is a placeholder for the desired file path. Replace it with the location and name you want for the encrypted file.
• "${receiver}": This is the recipient's Keybase username or Keybase team name. The encrypted file will only be readable by this particular user/team, as they possess the private key to decrypt it. Replace "${receiver}" with the username or team name of the intended recipient.

To summarize, this command encrypts the contents of a given input file using Keybase and saves the encrypted data to an output file. The resulting encrypted file is only accessible to the recipient specified.
