Hi there Monks!
I am trying to encrypt a file using Crypt::OpenPGP, when it runs it does not give me any errors, it just hangs there. Can any one take a look at my code and see where I am missing something. 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use File::Basename;
use Crypt::OpenPGP;

my $ring = Crypt::OpenPGP::KeyRing->new(
  Data => qq^-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (SunOS)

mQGiBFDr.....

-----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----^ );


my $datafile = "original.csv";

# Get just name of the original file to name the new encrypted file.
my ( $encrypted ) = fileparse( $datafile, "\.[^.]*" ); # $name, $path,
+ $suffix

open( INFILE, "< $datafile" ) or die "Could not open csv file - $!";

  my $plaintext = <INFILE>;

close INFILE; $ring->read;

my $kb = $ring->find_keyblock_by_index(0);

my $cert = $kb->encrypting_key;

my $pgp = Crypt::OpenPGP->new( Compat => 'GnuPG' );

my $ct = $pgp->encrypt( Key => $cert, Data => $plaintext, Armour => 1 
+) or die "ERROR: " . $pgp->errstr;

open( OUTFILE, "> $encrypted.pgp" ) or die "Could not open file for en
+crypted data - $!";

  print OUTFILE $ct;

close OUTFILE;

Thanks for looking!
