zuluCrypt can also encrypt stand alone files:

* zuluMount:
zuluMount is bundled with zuluCrypt and its meant to be used as a
general purpose tool that mount and unmount zuluCrypt supported
encrypted volumes as well as unencrypted volumes and it can be
used as a substitute to udisks,pmount and related tools.
zuluMount-gui can also be used as a frontend to encfs.
