I have been playing with implementing an API for GPG as a library by building some patches to the GPG code. I haven't announced it because it was being done as a University assignment and I wasn't confident that it would ever result in working code. If people promise not to make too much fun of it, then feel free to have a look at my assignment submission at http://www.stillhq.com/gpg/ass2/index.html Basically all I have implemented is the changes needed to decrypt inside my own code by calling the relevant parts of the GPG code. Any suggestions are welcome. Mikal -- Michael Still (mikal@stillhq.com) - Panda PDF Generation Library (http://www.stillhq.com/panda/) - GPG Public Key at http://www.stillhq.com/mikal.asc
