-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Howdy, me again. In keeping with my wish to make PGP signing of transmissions simple and commonplace, I've got another script for y'all. This is for the Tin Newsreader. I hope you find it useful. Comments appreciated. ============================================================ #!/bin/sh # TinSign v1.0 # Written by Robert A. Hayden <hayden@krypton.mankato.msus.edu> # Based in part on the PGP editor wrapper, Version 1.0 (editpgp) # Copyright (c) 1994, Mark Lewis <nostra@city.ac.uk>. # TINSIGN is a simple program that will allow you to automatically sign # your news messages composed with the TIN 1.2pl2 news reader. It # may also work with other news programs, but it has not been tested. # INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONFIGURING TIN # # You need to define the following options in Tin. This is done via # editing the $HOME/.tin/tinrc file. # # A) start_editor_offset=ON # B) default_editor_format=<path to this script> +%N %F # Example: /users/foo/bar/tinsign +%N %F # C) default_sigfile=/dev/null # NOTE: I have been unable to get my copy of tin to read # any file other than $HOME/.signature, no matter # what this parameter is set to. The solution I # found was to remove $HOME/.signature and create # another file that is read in by defining the # variable below. You may want to experiment with # this to find out what works best for you as this # might be a bug specific to our local compilation. # INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONFIGURING TINSIGN # # The PGP program must be in your path, and the PGPPATH environment # variable must be defined. See the PGP documentation for details. # # In addition to PGP and the editor you define, TinSign also will use the # following programs: # awk # cat # echo # egrep # mv # rm # sleep # # Double check that the first line of this program points to sh. # # Execute the command "chmod 700 <path/to/tinsign>". # # Edit the SIGPATH and TINEDITOR variables to point at your signature # (if any) and the editor you wish to use for your Tin messages. Default # signature will be the file .signature-tin in your $HOME directory. # Default editor is pico -z -t. # # Define SIGPATH=/dev/null if you do not have an ASCII signature to # append. SIGPATH=$HOME/.signature-tin TINEDITOR='pico -z -t' # INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING TINSIGN # # When you compose a message, you will compose your message as normal. # # When you exit your editor (control-X in Pico), you will receive a # prompt asking for your PGP passphrase. Type this in. # # At this point, if you have defined one, your ASCII signature will be # appended to the message AFTER the digital signature. # # You will then be put into the Tin menu asking if you wish to edit your # posting some more, quit the post (ie, abort it), or post it. ### DO NOT TAMPER BELOW THIS LINE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING ### # Define internal variables filename=`echo $2 | cut -f$# -d' '` tmpdir=/tmp #Run editor $TINEDITOR +$1 $2 # Split the headers from the body of the article awk '{ print }; /^$/ { exit }' $filename > ${tmpdir}/tmp$$.hdr awk 'body == 1 { print }; /^$/ { body=1 }' $filename > ${tmpdir}/tmp$$ # Remove "--" egrep -ve '^--$' ${tmpdir}/tmp$$ > ${tmpdir}/tmp2$$ mv ${tmpdir}/tmp2$$ ${tmpdir}/tmp$$ # Sign the message pgp -sat +comment="PGP Signed with TinSign 1.0" +clearsig=on ${tmpdir}/tmp$$ if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then cat ${tmpdir}/tmp$$.hdr ${tmpdir}/tmp$$.asc > $filename else echo ""; echo "*Error in signing.
