-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Unfortunately some of my friends can't use encrypted e-mail at work or for other reasons. On the other hand almost anyone who can read e-mail can also open encrypted pdf files. So why not send encrypted pdfs instead?
To avoid the manual steps, I wrote a little script that just opens an editor for writing the email. The text is saved to a file, encrypted to pdf with password 'bar' and mailed to 'foo'. Obviously you have to change the mail and password and should have a sufficiently secure way of communicating the password. It took me a while to figure out how to convert etch's unicode text to pdf (a2ps and enscript don't work), so I hope this is useful for someone. 'uniprint' is part of the 'yudit' package, the rest should be obvious.
