Is El Gamal used in the source for PGP 3.0?

I don't know, no one's exported the source to pgp3.0 in electronic form, and I haven't seen the books either.

I have the books; ElGamal is indeed one of the algorithms in use in the 3.0 pre-alpha code. Ariel Glenn / AcIS R&D / Columbia University ariel@columbia.edu #include <stddisclaimer.h>
