Subject: see the sending filter options?

I'd like to use one of these two filters: (1) /usr/local/
bin/pgp -fast, (2) /usr/local/bin/pgp -feast.  However,
then I do ^x and scroll thru them, they all appear to be
/usr/local/bin/pgp.  I cannot seen the options (-fast or
-feast) so I have to guess which one I am using.

It there a way to display the options?

I am using 3.92 on Irix 5.3.  I love the filter features!

This has been discussed before. I think, pine lacks some features for this
filters. One of them would be to give filters a name.
The easiest workaround for the time being would be to create a symbolic 
link wth 

ln -s /usr/local/bin/pgp <your $HOME>/bin/pgpsign

and choose <your $HOME>/bin/pgpsign -fast instead of 
/usr/local/bin/pgp -fast

More complicated solution include shellscripts with different names wich 
invoke pgp.
