I roll my own. I use emacs on an encrypted password file stored on my local PC.

  How do you keep the password file encrypted on file write and file open? Do you decrypt to the file system to a temp file first? Thank you

    Not GP, but using a similar setup (.org.gpg files for textual private data, on top of encrypted partitions as well), and Emacs comes with an EasyPG interface; doesn't need an intermediate temporary plaintext file. It can also handle an encrypted .authinfo, .authinfo.gpg, and encrypted bits of configuration (.el.gpg). That's one of the nice things about common/basic/widespread standards and tools: good compatibility and support. Handling non-GPG encryption in a similar way should be possible too, but won't work out of the box.

    Emacs has lisp for that, it prompts for a password on open. On save it encrypts it if it was changed.
