AFAIK, you can't use "2> file" to do output redirection when you use the
multiple-arguments form of 'system' because the shell isn't available.
Use open() to redirect STDERR to /dev/null before you call system.
Read "perldoc -f open."
system(@gpg_command) == 0 or warn "system @gpg_command failed:
$!";
it does not work. Instead I get a "usage" error.
[...]
gpg doesn't know what to do with a parameter of "2> /dev/null."
Could someone please explain where I've gone wrong? I would like to use
Crypt::GPG instead of system, but I have to get this finished.
Thanks!
