    Also, check on start, if you are in terminal (you might want to use isatty C analog like go-isatty), then run usage function instead of asking for password (basically simple run with no argument or stdin, - it shouldn't ask for password and later throw a garbage to a terminal but instead show "help" since there no input stream, not file to encrypt/decrypt)
