NAME
       pgppipe - decrypt PGP messages

SYNOPSIS
       pgppipe

DESCRIPTION
       The pgppipe programme will decrypt ASCII armour PGP messages, without
       the need for a passphrase. It uses PGPdaemon to actually perform the
       decryption. pgppipe is simply a front-end to PGPdaemon. PGPdaemon is
       part of the PGPsendmail/Unix Suite.  pgppipe will read the standard
       input for the encrypted message and will write the decrypted message to
       the standard output.  pgppipe is able to cope with multiple encrypted
       messages within the input.

FILES
       $PGPPATH/secring.pgp          the users' secret keyring file
       pgpsendmail/doc/README.PGPdaemon
                                     distribution README (has more info.)

BUGS
       pgppipe does not cope with improperly terminated PGP message blocks.
       Any data after an unterminated message block is lost.
