How aboout this? *** emacs/man/pgg.texi.~1.14.~ 2006-12-17 18:16:25.000000000 -0500 --- emacs/man/pgg.texi 2006-12-23 20:04:50.000000000 -0500 *************** Your change takes care of #1 and #3, but doesn't do #2. Please install the change, but we need a little more. Meanwhile, there's a use of gpg-agent which needs @code.
