getting gpg to decrypt to stdout.



i've just swapped over from pgp5 to gpg and have this one problem.  i use
to use pgpv to display an encrypted text file to stdout so that i could grep
it for keywords (i have a misc. password file i keep encrypted and an alias
to decrypt it and search it).

but i can't figure out how to do this with gpg and the man page doesn't seem
to make any mention of a way to do this.

am i being dumb?  or is there really not a way to do this?  i know i can
redirect the output to a temp file, search that, and then delete the temp
file, but any chance to leave a file like this lying around unencrypted is a
"bad thing".

thanks,
adam.
