I've written up some Applescripts for Eudora X to encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify plain text messages using the MacOS X port of Gnu Privacy Guard (GnuPG). GnuPG is suppose to be compatible with PGP, so this replaces some of the functionality of the PGP plugin for classic Eudora.

The Eudora-GPG Scripts scripts are written mainly in AppleScript with a few one-liners sent to Unix via the 'do shell script' AppleScript command. The intention is to minimize the number items that have to be installed on the Unix side.

The temptation is to do it all in Unix with say one large Perl script. However, this would make user interaction cumbersome as it would be difficult to pass messages between the user and the Perl script. As such, running time is only a secondary consideration in the design of these scripts.

Requirements:
Eudora.
