Sure sounds like a user interface to me. <shrug>
Sure, what did you expect? A program that obtains your pass phrase without a user interface?!? That would be a neat hack if you could pull it off. Should it do mind reading, or just crack the pass phrase by brute force? Seriously, the idea here is that the pgp front end shouldn't deal with the user interface in your present mail program. Nobody (before you) have considered doing it completely without a user interface. Matts
