    We are using PGP in a protected enterprise environment and need to do
    this. We have 1000's of files coming in daily that need to be decrypted.

    Say what you will about protected enterprise environment...

    I think I found my answer around the FAQ.

    Thanks for your help.

    | I'm not entirely clear on what you want to do. Do you want the terminal to
    | display the passphrase for PGP before you type it in? If so, I don't
    | believe GPG or PGP will do this, but you could write a wrapper that would
    | take care of it for you.
    |
    | However, the follow up question is: why on earth would you want to do this?
