NODE fd8b3e81pgp and multiple recipients

Hi,
pgp allows to encrypt a message for multiple recipients
by listing all recipients at the command line arguments.
If there are no recipients at the command line, pgp asks
for the recipient. Is there any way to give multiple recipients
to this question? pgp doesn't separate on comma or space.
I need this for calling pgp in a script where it is difficult
to put the recipients into the command line.
Thanks
Hadmut

No, there is currently no way to specify multiple recipients
not on the command line. It is on the list of fixes for a future
version of PGP.
Sorry.

But is there ever going to be a future version of PGP? Even if there
was, it would probably be ViaCrypt and we wouldn't even be able to see
the source :( I don't mind if Phil makes some money (he deserves a
reward for what he did!) but it's a shame PGP won't be the open system
that it was before. Maybe some netters would like to get together and
work on it to keep the free spirit of PGP alive...
