Re: [9fans] gnupg or pgp for plan9?

["Gabriel Diaz" <gabidiaz@gmail.com>]

hello

because those tools support a lot of algorithms / mime / certificates, etc, :-?
if all you want is crypt a file and be able to read it between
windows. lunix, plan9 :-?

I doesn't mean those tools are big compared to ones with the same
functionality, may be i choose a bad expression, sorry. What i mean is
that those tools are bigger than one that just crypt a stream of bytes
with one algorithm you choose.
And compile that tool should not be too difficult in those three
worlds. Only valid if those files will no be interchanged with people
with other/incompatible crypt tools. May be i missed the point of the
thread :-?
