I'm really starting to agree with those people as the 5.0I version has
many bugs. Unfortunately, many of my friends are using DH/DSS keys and,
as far as I know, the 5.0I version is the only command-line-based
version which supports these keys. To be completely honest, I'm quite
surprised that command line support seems to have been dropped
completely as there are many people and programs which still rely on
this interface.

That's what I thought; pgp5.0I seems to be screwing this up too as it
can't find the plain text file.

Again, I appreciate your help with this. I'm sure that I'll eventually
get this working. On second thought, maybe I shouldn't be so optimistic.
