Does anyone know a way you could use a command line to do PGP encryption for FTP purposes?

I noticed the WinZip I'm using also has encryption. Is there anyway I can use a command line to encrypt a file?
You should be able to run either PGP or WinZip using the run command with the appropriate command line (you can build the command line with the strfmt command). If you are using the eval. version of WinZip, I don't believe this will work though since you have to deal with the popup it displays and the accelerator to close that dialog is different from run to run.

If anyone needs to use PGPEncryption the best way is to use Robo-FTP software. Their scripting is similar to aspect and you can spawn one of their scripts through aspect.
here is a command line pgp software for free. it is called gpg. you will have to export your key from pgp and import them into this software. here's the site:
