Well, I'm trying. I make a pgp4pine program (written in C) that is used by at
least a few people (those who send patches and bug reports, at least :), and
it supports pgp5, pgp2, and gpg (which most pine/pgp programs dont). I've got
a REAL alpha program (doesn't actually do anything the system() call doesn't
like to work for me... :( at

It's only really for developers, and it's real dirty and ugly code, but it's a
start.
