I just checked the RFC and it says: If interoperability [with PGP 2] is not an issue, the new packet format is RECOMMENDED. Thus there is nothing in the standard which would speak against using the new headers. This can either be done using a new option or by using for example the existing compliance option --rfc4880. I don't assume that PGP 2 is still in use. With the recent addition of IDEA even decryption of old data can now be done with vanilla GPG. Shall we give this a test by using one of the compliance options and make the new headers the default in one or two years? Less code is always better. Salam-Shalom, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
