and this still uses standard mode - if there is any other OpenPGP app
which uses Blowfish, I maybe able to switch to PGP CFB mode for this
128 bit key version.
By the way, how can I get an assigned number for my (standard) Blowfish
implementation?
Blowfish, 128 bit key, 16 rounds is defined as cipher number 4.
