Mike Palmer asked me to post this question.
Doesn't sound very hopeful to me that the interface
can be done.  /mrr

Subject: Using pine mailer (& pico editor) w/RIPEM
To: mrr@scss3.cl.msu.edu

Hi, again.  Has anyone succeeded in getting RIPEM, using a shell script,
to interact with the pico editor in the pine mailer?  It seems that pine
doesn't make the headers available in the message text when you invoke the
alternate editor (i.e., ripem-encrypt).  I can only get it to work if I
manually type in the recipient as the first line of the message, and THEN
type Ctrl-Shift-Underscore.

This is still (somewhat) a moot point, since pine v3.05 doesn't have the
pipe command implemented yet to enable on-line DEcryption, but I still
want to see how much of it I can get working.

Maybe you could post this request to alt.security.ripem to see if anyone
has tried this.
