I am looking for something to encrypt files so that somebody can decrypt them even on a Mac or Win-PC. With this I could for example deliver private client photos via dropbox or similar.
There are easier methods. You could pack the file(s) with (pk)zip, which allows adding a password. There are tools in all operating systems, I think, to open them.
Caveat is, I don't know how strong is that encryption or protection.
If you want your data to be unreadable by most people, don't use zip encryption. It is considered weak[1][2]. [1] man zipcloak, line 46 [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_(file_format)#Encryption -- /bengan
