| I would like to know how to sign, encrypt in text format with mailcrypt.
| The standard mailcrypt-encrypt does pgp -st and I need pgp -sta.
TinyPgp does that and lot more. Check out:

1.5 Planned feature list in order of priority
o bbdb support
o PGP 5 support as soon as I find tar.gz that compiles in
HP-UX. The current PGP 5i for Unix is not very solid and
I can't get it compiled.
o Automatic remail posting based on newsgroup
8group based auto action support9
o Alpha8does it still exist9 + other account managing.
o Key handling mode, trust parameter, moving keys
from/to keyrings.
o Creating keyring, Creating new pgp user ids, editing
user ids.
o Read ~/.mailrc variables should be read/written
to separate file to speed up loading TinyPgp.
This is only noticeable during startup; don't know
if I should consider improving this.
1.6 Overview of general features
o Interface to the usual PGP functions, including encryption,
decryption, signature creation, signature verification, key
addition, and key extraction
o Passphrase cache with configurable timeout
o Support for multiple secret keys
o An automagic interface to the PGP public key servers
through http, ftp or email.
1.7 Overview of advanced features
o Extra password protection, doesn't use -z option
o PGP signature showing/hiding in mail/newspost
o Multiple user identities handling 8you can change to user XXX9
o Multiple pubring management
o Conventional crypt supported 8pgp -c9
o Signing: X-pgp, base64, Regular.
o 'One pass' encrypt and sign command
o File insert: as base64 signed. You can send and
receive binary files 8tar9 as pgp signed.
o Individual auto-action: TinyPgp automatically encrypts/signs
mail to persons that you have defined in auto action list.
o Multiple recipient auto-action: encrypts to CC list automatically.
Soon you don't even realize that you use PGP regularly.
o Minor mode interface for any buffer: allows doing pgp on
arbitrary regions
1.8 Supported Emacs packages
o VM/MH/RMAIL/GNUS summary minor mode: in summary buffers the
pgp commands looks for active message buffer.
