I am really learning to love PGP, and I haven't even used it much yet! I'm insisting that all my friends get keys. But.... I would like to set up two secret keys for myself. One 512 bits long and another 1024 bits long. I'll distribute the short one. I'll give the long one to trusted and close friends. I'm having difficulty setting it up so that pgp defaults to using the short key to encrypt stuff. Note that I want the same user id for both, but perhapse with a "secure" flag in the user id of the large key. How can I do this? Can we get someone to compile and distribute pgp for the amoeba, er, I mean Amiga? ;^) My friend has one, but no C compiler. Some suggestions for future versions... Is there any chance of pgp cloaking it's ascii armoured output to look like uuencoded data? I would like to use pgp on the mainframes, but don't want to store my secret key on their disks. Would it be possible to have pgp accept it's secret key via stdin. I could do an ascii upload of my secret key and never expose my key to disk-storage. How about password protecting pgp itself. No one could use my copy of pgp unless they knew my password. And only my copy of pgp could decrypt my secret key. Just a thought. How about a -wn option that would wipe the original file 'n' times. Like pgp -wen10 very_secret_stuff cohort. That should keep even Big Brother from prying. Is it possible to have pgp develope a third key that looks just like a regular key except that when it is used in place of your secret key, it produces an alternate plaintext. This way, if Big Brother "requested" you'r key, and you needed to dissavow all of you'r messages, you could exchange the third key for you'r secret key. When someone used this key, they'd get some insulting message that may or may not have been the original message...and there'd be no way of knowing. I kinda doubt it on this one, but wouldn't it be nice! Geez, have I really gone on for 40 lines? Sorry about that, but any comments? Hope to hear from you. -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.2 mQBNAiu21SIAAAECAMKkKKP4JIxSPR7rOUZ7mbi6yDPfFa7T6zOtOBX8iI939tIU 9JFTxdyvTejK3qmYDGozNaqySQ/0++nGqZgikcsABRG0LUouIE1pY2hhZWwgRGll aGwsIG1lLCA8bWRpZWhsQHRyaXRvbi51bW4uZWR1Pg== =YquS -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
