Hello folks @ 3000-l, et all
RE: SCP or SFTP?
As far as FTP goes, it does not include a file encryption feature, but it
can transfer a standard file which has been encrypted prior to transferring
it with FTP/iX.
Feed back on STORE-To-Disk:

A note on the suggestion to use STD as "security thru obscurity" - I
thought this might be a good idea, but I ran a quick test and initially
found otherwise!
file std;dev=disc
store mypass;*std
In my test I clearly could identify the ASCII text I entered in an editor
file.
I then reran my test with STORE-To-Disk and used the COMPRESS=HIGH option:
file stdHIGH;dev=disc
store mypass;*stdHIGH;COMPRESS=HIGH
... and I achieved desirable results, but keep in mind the STORE-To-Disk
COMPRESS=HIGH is a compression routine and not a encryption routine.
Here are my test results:
