Hi Scott.

I think you have PEM right -- except that there's RIPEM which does
file encryption/decryption just like PGP.  I've built a shell script
for my mailer (Mail) which invokes either RIPEM or my own secret key
algorithm so it's a bit more convenient.  Once I get purchased PGP,
I'll add PGP to that list.

I hope to use the same key for PGP and RIPEM.  (1024 bit RSA).
