- Initialize or mount an encrypted filesystem:
`encfs {{/path/to/cipher_dir}} {{/path/to/mount_point}}`
- Initialize an encrypted filesystem with standard settings:
`encfs --standard {{/path/to/cipher_dir}} {{/path/to/mount_point}}`
- Run encfs in the foreground instead of spawning a daemon:

`encfs -f {{/path/to/cipher_dir}} {{/path/to/mount_point}}`
- Mount an encrypted snapshot of a plain directory:
`encfs --reverse {{path/to/plain_dir}} {{path/to/cipher_dir}}`
