PGP 2 is all well and good, but isn't compatable with the keys
generated by PGP >=5, which is what all the kids are using these
days.

Unfortunately, the latest version of PGP (6.5.8) uses C++.  Grrr....
I tried to port GPG (the GNU version, which at least is written in
straight up C), but gave up in disgust after a few hours of fixing
stupid type incompatabilities in various source files.

It'd be nice to see an OpenPGP implementation under Plan 9, maybe
built from the ground up.
