Automate decryption

[Hardeep Singh]

Hi

This question pops up from time to time. I have written a blog post on this:

http://blog.hardeep.name/computer/20080904/auto-gpg/

I havent added details on how to secure the passphrase and key file -
but maybe I can do that. Please send in comments - better if you post
them on the blog itself.

Regards
Hardeep
