Hi, Nils,
I reread my first message and do see something offensive there. Here
I applogize for the comments I made to your efforts on gpg's FAQ.
On the other hand, in the section "Decrypting a PGP 2.x document" of
http://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/pgp2x.html, there is no description about
what I was just told. I guess the "gpg" program used in the example
has an IDEA module integrated. However, the "gpg" program made from
standard release doesn't have this feature, so maybe it is better to
add more comments in the section "Decrypting a PGP 2.x document" of
next release.
Best Regards,
