Netscape PGP half-Plugin *
Version 0.13

* half-Plugin, because it does only half of work - it can encrypt and sign
but can not decrypt and verify.


How it works:
There is a Spell Checker in Netscape, Spell Checker is in separate dll file
half-Plugin sits between Netscape and Spell Checker.


Installing:
1. Rename file ...\Netscape\spellchk\sp3240.dll to sp3240_.dll (do not move
   to another directory, half-Plugin will not be able to find it then)
2. Copy new sp3240.dll to ...\Netscape\spellchk


Using:
Write message, then click on the "Spell" button (or "Tools/Spell Check" menu
item or press Ctrl-K), the "PGP Encrypt/Sign" and "Spell Check" selection box
will appear, now choose "PGP Encrypt/Sign",
this will invoke window like a Spell Checker window, but it works differently,
now select "Sign", "Encrypt" or "Encrypt and Sign" and click on "Replace",
or click on the "Stop" if you want to cancel.

If you want both you should Spell Check an Encrypt/Sign just click the "Spell"
button twice. Of course you should Spell Check before Encrypt/Sign.

If Netscape "Edit/Preferences/Messages/Spell check messages before sending"
setting is checked the selection box will appear after you press the "Send",
but you can not both Spell Check an Encrypt/Sign this way so if you want both
you should Spell Check before sending.
Clicking on "Stop" will not cancel message sending - message will be sent
in plain text.

If you can configure half-Plugin so that it starts Encrypt/Sign or Spell Check
by default (do not shows selection box) by holding down Ctrl and Shift keys
when clicking the "Spell" button (or "Tools/Spell Check" menu item) or with
nsplgcfg.exe.

You can start Encrypt/Sign by holding down Ctrl key when clicking the "Spell"
button (or "Tools/Spell Check" menu item) or Spell Check by holding down Ctrl
key when clicking the "Spell" button (or "Tools/Spell Check" menu item)


Built With:
Visual C++ 6
PGP Source and SDK pgp651i-win-src.zip from ftp://ftp.pgpi.org
spellchk.h from http://lxr.mozilla.org


Tested with:
Netscape 4.7
PGP 6.5.2


Possible problems:
* it does not encrypt attachments
* it can not encrypt/sign messages bigger than 100 kb
* it is not thread safe, use only one at time
* it may or may not work with different Netscape or PGP versions

History
27.01.00 I got idea that its possible to use Spell Check interface for PGP
28.01.00 version 0.1 released after 2 days of work
31.01.00 version 0.11 small bug fixed which may cause plaintext to be sent
  if "Edit/Preferences/Messages/Spell check messages before sending"
02.02.00 version 0.12 added possibility to skip PGP/Spell selection dialog
  and go directly to PGP, added configuration tool: nsplgcfg.exe to enable
  or disable this feature
03.02.00 version 0.13 improved possibility to skip PGP/Spell selection
  box and go directly to PGP (by holding Ctrl down) or Spell Check
  (by holding Shift down), removed nsplgcfg.exe (replaced by Internal
  Configuration dialog, invoked by holding Ctrl and Shift down), solved
  problem that caused Netscape Composer to hang
