This PGP version 2.3a for the Archimedes (release 1.18b) by Chris Gransden
with assembler routines by Paul L. Allen. PGP is a public-key encryption
system using an RSA/IDEA hybrid encryption scheme together with the MD5
message digest algorithm for digital signatures.
Thanks to the efforts of Paul L. Allen this version encrypts/decrypts
significantly faster than previous versions. Most of the relevant routines
have now been coded in assembler.
If for some reason you wish to contact either myself or Paul, maybe for bug
reports or suggestions for improvements. We can be contacted via email at
the following addresses.

This is a command-line application - you should copy the PGP executable in
the library directory to your own library directory, or some other convenient
directory on Run$Path. The !PGP directory should be `seen' by the filer
to set the PGPPATH variable, so that PGP can find your keyrings and the
help and language files. Your first step should be to *read the
documentation*, your second step should be to generate a secret/public key
pair for yourself.
Should you want to verify my signature in pgpsig/asc against the
executable, pgp, then you will need my public key which is reproduced
below. Use "pgp pgpsig/asc" and when it asks for the text file to check,
enter "pgp". If you feel unable to trust this public key or you have a
paranoid and/or supicious nature you will want the source. It is hoped
that sometime in the near future the Archimedes customisations will be
included in the official source distribution.
