You want the -o option, as in "gpg -o output-goes-here.gpg -e file-to-encrypt" Note that "-s" doesn't encrypt. It signs.

You're not likely to find a comparison between those three ciphers except in the most light sense of the word. Certainly not a " is better than " type of thing. The question is just more complicated than that.

I don't mean that as a knock against IDEA - it was a fine cipher for its time, but time has moved on. The only reason to use IDEA is if you want to be compatible with PGP 2 messages.

Re: Strength of ciphers in PGP?
Anonymous wrote: > Do anyone have links to comparisons of the ciphers traditionally used in > PGP (IDEA, CAST5, 3DES). Thank you. Yes. IDEA is Godzilla, CAST5 is Moth-Ra and 3DES is MechaGodzilla. They all excel at stomping cities flat and terrorizing inhabitants. All that people in Tokyo need to know about them is "when you see them coming, run for the hills." The above answer is tongue in cheek, but there's a lot of accuracy in it. Unless you're a professional cryptographer, the various cryptanalytic analyses of the OpenPGP cipher suite are going to be pretty much meaningless and unhelpful. For 99% of other people--myself included--it really reduces down to "they are all believed resistant against all known forms of cryptanalysis, and are impractical to brute force." If you really want to go down this road, it would help if you clarified your question a lot. What sort of comparisons? How many operations are involved in an encryption cycle? Decryption cycle? How much processing is involved in key setup? Relative size of code? Hardware requirements? Efficiency? Best known cryptanalytic attacks? Etc., etc. Your question, as phrased, is far too general to give any sort of meaningful answer except "as far as the layman is concerned, they're pretty much identical". ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

Sadly, My experience has shown that it doesn't 'go without saying'. :( Interestingly, having become the 'Cyber-Executor' for several Friends I find Myself in the unique position of holding Revocation Certs In escrow for many Keys. :-\ My advice is to treat the 'care' of Keys as One would any other Asset and specify what should be done when inevitable demise occurs. Store the Revocation Certs in a Safe place where they will be found along with written instructions regarding what should be done with them.
