PGP LIBRARY FOR PERL
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This library contains a suite of PGP modules for Perl. Many of the
modules require the Systemics Cryptix 1.1 library.
Although the library is quite usable, it is still a long way from
being complete, and the interface subject to change.
FEATURES
This library contains the modules to do the following:
* PGP ascii armouring
* PGP conventional encryption
* PGP public key encryption/decryption
* PGP key generation, including vanity keys!
Note - the current version cannot handle compressed data packets,
does not handle signatures, and the key management is quite poor.
The library can be downloaded from
http://www.systemics.com/software/
Enjoy!
