in reply to PGP encryption command not working thru Perl Backticks

So, what is in @sys? I recommend inspecting the generated command before running it:

my $cmd = "pgp -ea +batchmode $dataFile @sys";
warn "Running [$cmd]" if $verbose;
$isEncrypted = `$cmd`;

Most likely, things in @sys need double quotes.
