Annotation of pgp/contrib/elm_nn/readme, revision 1.1

1.1     ! root        1: To integrate PGP 2.1 with Elm and NN:
        !             2: 
        !             3: 0) Make sure the path of Perl in the first line of each of the three
        !             4: files reflects the full path of this utility for your system. Also,
        !             5: make sure that the EDITOR and PAGER environment variables reflect your
        !             6: editor and pager of choice (vi and less will be used by default).
        !             7: 
        !             8: 1) Put the files morepgp, mailpgp, and postpgp in one of the
        !             9: directories on your PATH.
        !            10: 
        !            11: 2) Modify your ~/.elm/elmrc file to contain the following lines:
        !            12: 
        !            13:        editor  =       mailpgp
        !            14:        pager   =       morepgp
        !            15: 
        !            16: 3) Modify your ~/.nn/init file to contain the following lines:
        !            17: 
        !            18:        set editor      postpgp
        !            19: 
        !            20: That's all folks! Now, each time you post a message or reply to a
        !            21: message with nn, after you exit your editor, you will be asked whether
        !            22: you want to sign your message. Each time you compose a private message
        !            23: with elm, or reply to a message, and leave the editor, you'll be asked
        !            24: whether you want to sign and/or encrypt the message. When you browse a
        !            25: message, if it contains any PGP blocks, those will be properly
        !            26: interpreted. When you reply to a message containing PGP blocks, you'll
        !            27: have them properly decrypted and quoted in your editor.
        !            28: 
        !            29: BUGS
        !            30: 
        !            31: 1) You cannot encrypt messages that you mail from nn. You can only
        !            32: sign them.
        !            33: 
        !            34: 2) When you reply to a PGP-encryted message, the encrypted message is
        !            35: temporarily kept on the disk, which is a security hole.
        !            36: 
        !            37: 3) The temporary files are not wiped out, they are just deleted.
        !            38: 
        !            39: 4) The scripts are ugly, reflecting my lack of knowledge of Perl. In
        !            40: fact, I don't know Perl at all; I hacked somebody else's scripts. If
        !            41: you know Perl better then me, please feel free to improve the scripts
        !            42: and don't forget to mail me a copy of the improved version.
        !            43: 
        !            44: I can be contacted as Vesselin Bontchev at
