Tillmann Gaida 0cfc3fb7f7 Prevents starting a second instance of the GUI and forwards

main-method-arguments to the running instance. Command line arguments
are treated by showing the corresponding folder in the GUI.

If an argument is a folder, it is shown directly. If an argument is a
.masterkey.json file, the parent directory is shown. If an argument does
not exist, but the folder can be created, the newly created folder is
shown.

It was necessary to move the main function away from the MainApplication
class because running the main method of a class, which extends the
javafx Application class, will start a non-daemon thread. This prevents
the VM from exiting naturally.

OSX needs its own mechanism, which is implemented in OS-specific code.
It is vital that the required handler is added in the main thread of the
application, not the Java FX thread, which is a bit awkward to
implement. Since it is possible to open .cryptomator packages on OSX,
this extension is now hidden in the folder list.

Cryptomator

Multiplatform transparent client-side encryption of your files in the cloud.

If you want to take a look at the current beta version, go ahead and get your copy of cryptomator on Cryptomator.org or clone and build Cryptomator using Maven (instructions below).

Features

Totally transparent: Just work on the encrypted volume, as if it was an USB drive
Works with Dropbox, OneDrive (Skydrive), Google Drive and any other cloud storage, that syncs with a local directory
In fact it works with any directory. You can use it to encrypt as many folders as you like
AES encryption with 256 bit key length
Client-side. No accounts, no data shared with any online service
Filenames get encrypted too
No need to provide credentials for any 3rd party service
Open Source means: No backdoors. Control is better than trust
Use as many encrypted folders in your dropbox as you want. Each having individual passwords

Privacy

256 bit keys (unlimited strength policy bundled with native binaries - 128 bit elsewhere)
Scrypt key derivation
Cryptographically secure random numbers for salts, IVs and the masterkey of course
Sensitive data is swiped from the heap asap
Lightweight: Complexity kills security

Consistency

HMAC over file contents to recognize changed ciphertext before decryption
I/O operations are transactional and atomic, if the file systems supports it
Each file contains all information needed for decryption (except for the key of course). No common metadata means no SPOF

Building

Dependencies

Java 8
Maven 3
Optional: OS-dependent build tools for native packaging
Optional: JCE unlimited strength policy (needed for 256 bit keys)

Building on Debian-based OS
