After some putzing around with the code, I got x3dserve working locally.
Here is the source code:

https://github.com/coderextreme/x3dserve

Note that I no longer use a stylesheet to convert XML to JSON.  I use my
own serializer.  This was because I couldn't get java to work from node.js
code.   Well, I didn't want to install python 2.7 which node-gyp seems to
depend on.

But I think most aspects of encryption are covered.

Further work involved removing dependencies on Python 2.7 in X3DJSONLD.
Python 2 support ends at the end of the month!

Hopefully the node-gyp/java guys will get on the ball, and I won't have to
flip any other code.

This is a warning for all those that reinstall X3DJSONLD.  Keep your
environment the same until I can upgrade X3DJSONLD.

Also this puts more pressure on Saxonica to get a good free JavaScript
version in the browser.

Good luck if you use my code.  It's intended for private use, and not to be
put up on a server.

It appears that the default --gen-key with GPG uses RSA.  That is something
that should be looked at.
