[pgpewrap] is a program included in the [Mutt] email client package that has neither a manpage nor __--help__ or __-h__ screens. The only documentation is a brief mention in the __PGP-Notes.txt__ file in the mutt documentation: |

;: This is a little C program which does some command line munging: The first argument is a command to be executed. When pgpewrap encounters a __--__ (dash-dash) argument, it will interpret the next argument as a prefix which is put in front of all following arguments. |

You need this for multiple recipients because [GPG] needs __-r__ to for each of them, while [Mutt] can only output them as a single list, such as __key1 key2 key3__. [pgpewrap] is used to fix the command line for [GPG] so that __-- -r key1 key2 key3__ becomes __-r key1 -r key2 -r key3__. |
