You can use gpg as any other unix filter programm. Just use a pipe:

   prog_wich_creates_data | gpg ENCRYPTION_OPTS | mail MAIL_OPTS

If you don't have a single programm which creates the data, you can group
different programms:

    {
        echo "something"
        echo "foobar"
        some_example_programm
        echo "this is the last line
    } | gpg ENCRYPTION_OPTS | mail MAIL_OPTS
