Hi,
Just a minor FYI, I've made a change to epg.el to support
pinentry-curses, which implements the proposal from Werner Koch in
2007[1]. To test, start Emacs with:
$ unset DISPLAY
$ emacs
then open a GPG file, and you will be asked for a password through GPG's
curses interface. I know it behaves awkwardly and won't work on all the
supported platforms, but better than nothing, hopefully :)
Regards,

That doesn't work well, since emacs and pinentry-curses are competing
for terminal input.
