TITLE

     StealthPGP

VERSION

     Version 1.0

AUTHOR

     The original author is 'Henry Hastur'.
     Amiga port and enhancements by Peter Simons <simons@peti.GUN.de>.

DESCRIPTION

     Stealth is a simple filter for PGP which strips off all identifying
     header information to leave only the encrypted data in a format
     suitable for steganographic use. That is, the data can be hidden in
     images, audio files, text files, CAD files, and/or any other file
     type that may contain random data, then sent to another person who
     can retrieve the data from the file, attach headers, and PGP
     decrypt it.

     Stealth is not intended to replace the standardised methods of
     using encryption (e.g. ASCII-armoured PGP email) ; in an ideal
     world we would all be able to send openly encrypted mail or files
     to each other with no fear of reprisals, however there are often
     cases when this is not possible, either because the local
     government does not approve of encrypted communication, or perhaps
     because you are working for a company that does not allow encrypted
     email but doesn't care about Mandelbrot GIFs. This is where Stealth
     and steganography can come into play.
