This should do it. The attached shell script uses GPG to decrypt and
execute an ASCII armored shell script. I created the section marked
BEGIN PGP MESSAGE by using "gpg -c -a < script"
You can try the attached script by making it executable, running it and
using the passphrase XXX (three uppercase X characters). I promise all
it does it echo the date :-)
Of course, this doesn't work well for scripts that need to run in cron
or at boot time.
