Decryption via UNIX shell script

[DBSMITH at OhioHealth.com]

you have to have a file with your passphrase in it then ( I made mine a
hidden file) you cat this file along with a | to the gpg command with -
-decrypt
- -passphrase-fd 0 "new file" "encrypted file"

Read the man page; there is some --...-fd option you can use.
