good question - i wasn't aware of pgg. can you tell me more about it? i'd be very happy to find a single package that cleanly provides the encryption interface that allout needs! gentoo has an ebuild for it, but it involves xemacs dependencies, making me think the build is xemacs-specific. i gather, since you're responding via the emacs-devel list, that it's available for the mainline emacs - is that right? google points me at only emacs-wiki stuff (for a search on "emacs gpp") or xemacs-related stuff (for "xemacs gpp")... ken [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
