pgp4pine for Debian
----------------------

  I recommend you use the "-t" option that is mentioned in the documentation.

Installing pgp4pine in Pine 3.95 or newer
(Note: This may work for older versions, but I've only personally tested it
with 3.95 and above)

0. Edit ~/.pgp4pinerc. If you don't have one, copy it from
   /usr/share/doc/pgp4pine/examples/pgp4pinerc .
   If you have an older version then 1.76, you might want to check for new
   options.

1. In pine, go into Setup, then Configuration.

2. If you want pgp4pine to automatically catch and decrypt/verify 
   PGP-signed/encrypted messages, set display-filters (near the bottom) to

      _BEGINNING("-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE")_ /usr/bin/pgp4pine -d -i _TMPFILE_

   Do it exactly like this. Five '-' and _TMPFILE_ and this stuff literally.
   (Of course, change the path to the binary if you installed it elsewhere.)
   If you want to run pgp4pine only when you tell it to, don't fill this in,
   and do this instead: In a message, export it somewhere, then, in a
   shell/xterm, type "pgp4pine -d -i (filename)"

3. Set sending-filters to 

     /usr/bin/pgp4pine -e -i _TMPFILE_ -r _RECIPIENTS_

   You must use absolute paths for the pgp4pine executable.

3a. As a system administrator, you can globally set these filters in the
   /etc/pine.conf. Just add the lines:

display-filters=_BEGINNING("-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE")_ /usr/bin/pgp4pine -d -i _TMPFILE_
sending-filters=/usr/bin/pgp4pine -e -i _TMPFILE_ -r _RECIPIENTS_

4. When sending mail, Pine will now offer you filters, by default 'unfiltered'.
   You can cycle through the filters with Ctrl-N/Ctrl-P. Cursor-up and -down
   seem to work as well. 

5. If you often use pgp4pine for sending mail, you might want to go to Setup
   -> Configuration, and turn on 'compose-send-offers-first-filter'.

An illustrated installation manual is available at http://pgp4pine.flatline.de!
