You seem to be asking specifically for symmetric encryption here (you
use the same key to encrypt and decrypt), as opposed to asymmetric
encryption (where you use a public to encrypt and a private key to
decrypt).
PGP could encrypt with both methods (not sure if this is still the
case), however as far as I can tell, GnuPG can only encrypt with
asymmetric keys (I might be mistaken).
While there are pros and cons in both methods, I have to wonder what
you need to encrypt files for. For most applications, asymmetric
encryption is better.
