Thanks to all for offering help. I think I did not describe clearly what I
need (actually for one of my friends).
Let me know if what I intend to do make no sense.
The data to be protected resides on a fixed harddisk in a Windows computer.
I have a tool on Windows platform that does encryption u

cipher. This way you avoid passing symmetric keys in the clear.
If you are looking to build a custom solution, you might be better
off looking at the OpenSSL crypto API.

Hi there,
I want to create a symmetric cipher such as AES to encrypt some data, and
think gpg (GnuPG Version 1.4.2.1) may do this. But I found it gives only
three options, none is symmetric. I would appreciate if anyone can point me
to another or way to do it?
