The My::Crypt algorithm is rather optimized to encrypt a string than a text or a binary file, although you could work around with the following script to encrypt text files.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

# Usage:
#
# ./crypt.pl <file_to_encrypt> <encrypted_file>

use My::Crypt;

my $crypt = My::Crypt->new();

my $infile  = $ARGV[0];
my $outfile = $ARGV[1];

print "Encrypting '$infile'...\n";

&encrypt_file(
	in     => $infile , 
	out    => $outfile ,
	cipher => 'yourpass'
);


&decrypt_file(
	in     => $outfile , 
	out    => "$infile\.back" ,
	cipher => 'yourpass'
);

print "done\n";
