Decrypt PGP file using ASC key.

Question

Hello, I installed the command line version of pgp and I received a .pgp file and its key in a .asc file.

How can I decrypt the pgp file using command line and the asc key?

Thanks!

For GnuPG, it's done like this.

Import the key:

gpg --import key.asc

Decrypt the file:

gpg --decrypt file.pgp

For PGP Command Line, it's mostly the same:

pgp --import key.asc

pgp --decrypt file.pgp
