[http://www.gnupg.org GNU Privacy Guard] is a GPLed implementation of the PGP encryption protocols. Also known as "GnuPG" or "GPG".
Python/GnuPG interface
The original [http://www.amk.ca/python/code/gpg Python/GnuPG interface] is no longer actively maintained by amk. Please record comments, recipes, and patches on this Wiki page. If anyone wants to maintain the module and needs a CVS repository to store the code, just ask for write permission to the [http://www.sf.net/projects/pycrypto/ pycrypto project on SourceForge].

openpgp
Another worthy successor might be the [http://aonalu.makahavalley.org/openpgp/python Python opengpg] which also uses the [http://www.amk.ca/python/code/crypto.html Python Crypto Toolkit].
cryptlib
[http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/cryptlib/ cryptlib] also offers access to [http://www.openpgp.org/ OpenPGP] methods. It has a python-interface, but it's not natural at all.
