The Becky 2 plug-in invokes the command line version of GnuPG for Windows. 
It does not confer any additional facilities, but is simply there to allow
encryption, decryption, verification, and signing.  You still have to enter
Pc-Dos for commands, and until there are keyserver facilities, you still
need a GUI version of PGP running to access keyservers.

Incidentally, there is also a PGP plug-in for Becky 2 that also utilises the
commandline version of PGP 6.5.x, but does not have the same functionality
as the GnuPGP plug-in.

An earlier posting referred to Becky being available for 30 days' trial. 
That is Becky 1 (Rebecca), not Becky 2, which is in Beta at present.
