Password encrypt-decrypt util

# go-pwd

Tool to encode/decode passwords

```shell
gpwd enc
```

It will prompt to provide secret and password

## Decryption

```shell
gpwd dec
```

It will prompt for secret and after that password will be printed out

## Building and adding to PATH (fish)

1. **Compile your Go script into a binary**:

Compile your script into a binary by running:

```shell
go build . -o gpwd
```

Or

```shell
make build
```

2. **Move the binary to a directory in your PATH**:

Create a directory for your custom binaries. You can create a `bin` directory in your home directory:

```shell
mkdir ~/bin
```

Move the `gpwd` binary to this directory:

```shell
mv gpwd ~/bin
```

3. **Add the directory to your PATH in Fish shell**:

Open your Fish shell configuration file `~/.config/fish/config.fish`:

```shell
nano ~/.config/fish/config.fish
```

Add the following line to this file to include the `bin` directory in your PATH:

```shell
set -gx PATH $HOME/bin $PATH
```

Save the changes to the configuration file.

4. **Reload Fish configuration**:

After saving the changes, reload your Fish configuration to apply the changes:

```shell
source ~/.config/fish/config.fish
```

5. **Test your setup**:

You should now be able to run `gpwd` from anywhere in your terminal, and it should execute your `gpwd` script.
