Encrypting an in script password and wxperl

Dear all,

My next program is to help out my wife. It will resize some jpg's, upload
them via ftp to a website and email her the links of where they are. She
will use these for ebay listings. I also want a wee pop up box to ask for
the file or directory of the pictures.

I might have two version of this. One which will be stuck in gnome script
folder so she can just right-click the jpg and upload it. The other will
have the gui and an icon on the desktop.

This is all done apart form 2 bits:

1. How can I encrypt an in place password? (I know it will be sent plain
text)

2. Can I use wxperl for the dialog box and how hard would this be?

Thanks,

Gavin.
