💖 MHPGP(1) 💖

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for mhpgp — welcome to the group chat 🫶 no cap, it's here to help you deal with PGP messages without losing your whole entire mind.

✨ NAME ✨

mhpgp — verify and decrypt a message with gnupg

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

mhpgp [-write] [-Version] [-help] [+folder] [msg]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

mhpgp is a script to simplify verifying and decrypting PGP messages, using gnupg. literally that's the whole vibe 💅

It can handle signatures and encryption in MIME and plain (non-MIME) format. Signed messages are verified. Encrypted messages are displayed with show in decrypted form, and the signature is verified as well. obsessed with the follow-through, honestly.

With the -write switch, the decrypted message is stored into the current folder. cute, convenient, stored.

If no msg is given, the current message is used. defaults are iconic like that.

Trailing blanks are stripped from the lines before signature verification, because none are expected to be present — as RFC 3156 requests:

[...] implementations MUST make sure that no trailing whitespace is
present after the MIME encoding has been applied.

If there is trailing whitespace, it was likely added mistakenly during mail transfer. so if you see it, don't come for the message's character, okay? 🙈

🎀 FILES 🎀

None — nothing here, bestie. zero files, zero drama.

🧚 PROFILE COMPONENTS 🧚

None — again, none. the profile components are on vacation.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

🌈 DEFAULTS 🌈

  • +folder defaults to the current folder
  • msg defaults to the current message

💜 CONTEXT 💜

None — no context, no cap, no notes.

💀 BUGS 💀

The order of the command line arguments is relevant: The options must come first, the message specification last. periodt. put the options in the front seat and let msg ride in the back 🚗✨
