NAME
pgpgpg - wrapper around Gnu Privacy Guard that takes Pretty Good Privacy command line options
SYNOPSIS
pgpgpg [options] pgpfile
pgpgpg -e [options] file user ...
DESCRIPTION
PGPGPG is a wrapper that allows calls to GnuPG (Gnu Privacy Guard) using the command line options of
(Pretty Good Privacy). PGP and GnuPG are encryption programms with high security encryption engines.
However, PGP is available without a fee but is not realy free software. GnuPG on the other hand is
realy free software and has additionally features but with a different command line syntax than PGP.
The goal of pgpgpg is to plug in a command line syntax in front of GnuPG equal to PGP 2.6.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported by pgpgpg notice that long options do not use the usual GNU syntax
(--) but, instead are of the form +option[=value].
-e Encrypt a plaintext file.
-d, -p Decrypt a plaintext file.
-s Sign a plaintext file.
pgpgpg -s file [-u userid]
-sb Create a separate signature certificate (a .sig file) for a given file.
pgpgpg -sb file [-u userid]
-c Use convential cryptography when encrypting.
-o Output to the file specified. Should only be used for encryption, decryption and signature
operations (not for key management).
-a, +armor
ASCII armor the output file.
-u, +myname
Select the userid to use for some operations.

+force, +clearsig, +comment, +completes_needed, +compress, +marginals_needed, +pubring, +secring,

This manpage was written by Javier Fernández-Sanguino for the Debian distribution (but may be used by
others) by glancing at PGP's manpage and the source code from PGPGPG (pgpopts.c)
