Re: questions: no input file, and pascal programming
Hmm, that would spoil things. reading this http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t365339-p-write-eof-without-closing.html the opinion there is that sending control-Z is just a signal from the keyboard to the shell which the shell uses to cut the flow to the application listening on stdin, it doesn't actually send control-z to the app. in other words I need to flush and close the input side of the pipe, but not the output side or won't collect the program output. I was hoping that tprocess.CloseInput might acheive that but it doesn't seem to cause gpg to stop listening for input. Anyone got any ideas? thanks, Philip James P.

Re: questions: no input file, and pascal programming
I got it to work in Windows. With a default install of gpg4win gpg is not in the path, but this command works echo Mary had a little lamb|"c:\Program Files\GNU\GnuPG\gpg.exe" --yes -eat -o test.txt.gpg -r [keyid] I'm thinking that it might be easier for a pascal programmer to interface with gpg on command line than to figure out how to compile against gpgme c code, even if it isn't probably the right way to do it. thanks, Philip Hardeep Singh wrote: The same can be done in Windows.
