It's not safer. Regarding the complexity, however, the data to encrypt
is already on fd 0, so you would need to move either the data or the
passphrase to another fd, I think. The example from your code on GitHub
doesn't get data piped to it, so it doesn't need multiple fd's, which is
the point where it gets more complicated.

Depending on how --passphrase-file is implemented, it might be possible
to use --passphrase-file <(echo pass), which isn't very complicated.

HTH,

Peter.
