  4.                           PGP Amiga v2.3a (Patchlevel 3)
  5.                           ==============================
  6.  
  7.                  Amiga port by Peter Simons <simons@peti.GUN.de>
  8.  
  9.  
  10.                                                              Bonn, 5-Jun-94
  11.  
  12.      This archive contains anything you need to run PGP: The binaries, all
  13. docs, contributions, etc... Additionally, you might be interested in the
  14. following archives, all available on the Aminet in pub/aminet/util/crypt/:
  15.  
  16.  | PGPAmi23a3_src.lha      - full source code, texinfo docs
  17.  | PGP_german_docs.lha     - complete german manuals and language.txt
  18.  
  19.      If you can't find them, feel free to send me e-mail and we'll find
  20. some way to deliver the latest version to you. By the way: I deleted a few
  21. files in this release, because they're useless for Amiga owners. If you're
  22. interested in a VMS installation guide, get the official 2.3a release. :-)
  23.  
  24.      To install PGP you can use the included Installer script. The
  25. Installer program itself is not included in the archive. Just execute
  26. "PGP-Install" in the shell and lean back to enjoy the show.
  27.  
  28. Here's a list of changes I've made:
  29.  
  30.  - modified PGP to recognize local (SET vs. SETENV) shell variables, too.
  31.    (Only available under OS 2.04 or later!)
  32.  
  33.  - the configfile has been renamed from "config.txt" to "pgp.config"
  34.  
  35.  - the executable is now pure and may be made resident
  36.  
  37.  - converted the documentation to AmigaGuide-format. Many thanks Jin S Choi
  38.    for authoring the TexInfo style docs. (If you happen to find any bugs or
  39.    formatting errors in the manual, please report them! I didn't read the
  40.    whole manual again. :->)
  41.  
  42.  - added an Installer script (Thanks to Jacob Ellis!!)
  43.  
  44.  - Whenever PGP needs user input, it will check whether the current
  45.    standard input is interactive. This will avoid infinite loops and
  46.    crashed when started with "PGP -f <test". If the standard input is not
  47.    interactive, PGP will pop up an requester asking for the string. This
  48.    feature requires the reqtools.library by Nico Francois, available on the
  49.    Aminet.
  50.  
  51.  - PGP is able to read its commandline from the shell!! (Note: The Amiga
  52.    version is the _only_ PGP version that has this capability. :->) Here's
  53.    a brief description:
  54.  
  55.    | AmigaDOS supports only commandlines up to 512 characters. This is a
  56.    | serious limitation for programs like PGP, where you may need very long
  57.    | lines, especially when encrypting for several receivers.
  58.    |
  59.    | This module provides a nice way around the problem: You may call the
  60.    | program with a filename, prefaced with the at ("@") and PGP will read
  61.    | this file and use it's contents instead of the filename. Newlines
  62.    | ("\n") in the file will be turned into blanks (" ").
  63.    |
  64.    | To encrypt a text for a few hundred persons, just write all their
  65.    | addresses to a file like this:
  66.    |
  67.    |   address1 address2 address3 [...] addressN
  68.    |
  69.    | or
  70.    |
  71.    |   address1
  72.    |   address2
  73.    |   address3
  74.    |   address4
  75.    |   [...]
  76.    |   address9*10^255+1
  77.    |   address9*10^255+2
  78.    |
  79.    | and save it as, say, "T:addressfile". Now call PGP:
  80.    |
  81.    |      PGP -ftesa @T:addressfile <infile >outfile
  82.    |
  83.    | Voila! :-)
  84.    |
  85.    |
  86.    | If you want to use a parameter that starts with an at, you have to put
  87.    | a '\' before the at or specify it in quotes:
  88.    |
  89.    |    pgp -e filename "@peti.GUN.de"
  90.    |    pgp -e filename \@peti.GUN.de
  91.    |
  92.    | and the module will treat this as a normal parameter.
  93.    |
  94.    | If you want to load a file that contains blanks, you have to put the
  95.    | _name_ into quotes:
  96.    |
  97.    |    PGP -e filename @"weird file name"
  98.  
  99.  - I modified PGP to display the last 32 bit of the internal key ID, like
  100.    PGP 2.6 does. This reduces the chance of ID-collision.
  101.  
  102.  - PGP 2.3a.3 can process encrypted texts or signatures created by PGP 2.6.
  103.    It will give you a warning calling it 'unsupported packet format' just
  104.    to make sure you realize you are relying on a kind of hack here, but I
  105.    experienced no problems at all.
  106.  
  107.  - I added a flag called "PGP26_IMPERSONATE" or short "-n". You may specify
  108.    both the long and and short form on the commandline. Additonally, you
  109.    may add the long form to your config file, for example:
  110.  
  111.         PGP26_IMPERSONATE = on
  112.  
  113.    to set a kind of permanent default.
  114.  
  115.    If you set this feature to on -- or specify "-n" on the commandline --
  116.    PGP 2.3a.3 will create the same kind of packets like PGP 2.6 does. Here
  117.    is an example:
  118.  
  119.         PGP -tesan test.txt simons@peti.GUN.de
  120.  
  121.    Switching this feature on, will also 'bump' the version number to 2.6
  122.    temporarily. ATTENTION: Files generated in this mode can not be
  123.    processed PGP versions earlier than 2.6, unless they contain the same
  124.    patch as this version. You should _not_ use this feature!
  125.  
  126.  
  127.      Now, before you go on, you should validate whether all files are
  128. unmodified, use the md5sum utility together with the checksums appended to
  129. this text. Just type:
  130.  
  131.         contrib/md5sum/md5sum -cv readme.amiga
  132.  
  133. and all files in the distribution will be checked. This file itself is
  134. signed with my secret key, so a simple
  135.  
  136.         PGP -ka readme.amiga
  137.         PGP readme.amiga
  138.  
  139. will check the integrity of this text, too.
  140.  
  141.  
  142.      Okay, if all files reported as okay, you may start "Installer
  143. InstallPGP" and lean back to enjoy the show. :-) ATTENTION: If some files
  144. do not report as okay, please contact me immediately and state where you got
  145. the archive from, so I can check it for backdoors!
  146.  
  147.      If you want to receive the latest news on PGPAmiga, you might be
  148. interested in subscribing to the PGPAmiga mailing list running on my
  149. machine. All you have to do is to send an e-mail to
  150. PGPAmiga-request@peti.GUN.de and to put the keyword "ADD" into the message
  151. body. You may also specify the address you want to subscribe:
  152.  
  153.         ADD joe@doe.foobar.com
  154.  
  155. You should receive notification from the ListSERV daemon whether the
  156. subscription succeeded within 24 hours.
  157.  
  158.           Yours,
  159.  
  160.                 Peter Simons
