More control over what's happening -- which can be a good or a bad thing, as it also takes more work to get things done. It's really that OpenSSL and GPG were made for different purposes and I think you're stretching GPG very far if you want to encrypt big streams of data. That's more something OpenSSL was made for. -- Jerome Baum tel +49-1578-8434336 email jer...@jeromebaum.com -- PGP: A0E4 B2D4 94E6 20EE 85BA E45B 63E4 2BD8 C58C 753A PGP: 2C23 EBFF DF1A 840D 2351 F5F5 F25B A03F 2152 36DA
