Ok, I believe in the supreme powers of VI. :^) So, here are 2 VI macros
I wrote, they allow you to PGP the file upon exiting. Simple, but
efficient:
" PGP the whole file and sign it. Exit Vi afterwards.
map \xf 1G!Gpgp -fsweat^MZZ
" PGP-sign the article body (the whole file except the first paragraph).
map \xa 1G}!Gpgp -fsat +clearsig=on^MZZ
Don't forget to replace "^M" with literal carriage return.

Those who don't understand Unix are doomed to reinvent it, poorly.
