Okay, there are 4 superfluous new line characters on it (hmm, I get
only two here).  Otherwise, it appears to be fine.  Most likely, these
are the result of the "echo" lines in your gpgtar script.  I'd suggest
to redirect output to stderr for them as well, and they should vanish.
It's possible that the "read" calls write to stdout as well, resulting
in more newline characters.

I'm not sure if shell (even zsh) is the right programming language for
this kind of task. :-/
