Goofs happen, man. :) Also, a note for anyone who's confused (what's CTAK? does GnuPG use CTAK or CFB for symmetric encryption? etc.): CFB stands for "Cipher Feedback", which is a particular mode of operation for symmetric ciphers. CTAK is "Ciphertext Autokey", which is the exact same thing by another name. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
