Sorry if I am out of line contacting you by email but I didn't see any other way to ask a question. I am a newbie Perl programmer and I want to pipe plain text to GPG and have it return the text encrypted. I have read quite a few articles and came up with this chunk of code on my own BUT it doesn't work and I was wondering if you can tell me what I am doing wrong... my $public_key = "nameofpublickey"; my $plain_text = "this is a test message"; my $gpg_command = '/usr/local/bin/gpg'; open (GPGCOMMAND, "|$gpg_command"); my $encrypted_text = print GPGCOMMAND $plain_text | '$gpg_command -ea -r $public_key'; close (GPGCOMMAND); print "encrypted text=$encrypted_text"; It prints: encrypted text=1 What am I doing wrong?
