i'm not really sure what you mean by that. certainly we shouldn't
require the content-producing programs (like, say, 'cat') to know
anything about encryption, but that idea's already totally foreign to
plan 9 (cat --enable-encryption-with-aes-cbc?).

having s/mime in upas would be wonderful, but doesn't fully address
the needs being discussed. i want to be able to store files on disk
securely, including across platforms. for that, i want a stand-alone
program (hopefully, one which could then be used in upas).
