This is a FAQ.  There are several well known ways of incorporating Pine
and PGP.  Check this URL for the methods that I have been using:

	http://www.pharm.med.uc.edu/~yuan/pine_pgp.html

It is quite simple, provided you are not using a stripped down Unix
(like some Linux flavors) system that lacks some tty functionalities.

Cheers!

If you're using "a stripped down Unix", try:
	(http://www.rhein.de/~roland/)
	(http://www.rhein.de/~aldo/pine.html)

They're not quite as "simple", but they work like a charm.

As an alternative to this approach, I have a way of incorporating
PGP with Pine.  See my web page at this URL:  

	http://www.pharm.med.uc.edu/~yuan/pine_pgp.html.

If you neither want to study any webpages nor install any additional
scripts you can just add the following entries:

display-filters=
 _LEADING("-----BEGIN PGP MESSAG")_ /usr/local/bin/pgp,
 _LEADING("-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED")_ /usr/local/bin/pgp -m,
 _LEADING("-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC")_ /usr/local/bin/pgp -ka _TMPFILE_

sending-filters=/usr/local/bin/pgp -feat _RECIPIENTS_
