Just a question: how do you plan to handle this pinentry? The last time I gave gpg 2 a try, a crude GTK dialog appeared from nowhere (disrupting my command line workflow). I just ran away, screaming. It seems there's a command-line pinentry these days. From Emacs, my dream would be that it's Emacs which handles user interaction. Have you any ideas? thanks - -- tomás -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlZAXTMACgkQBcgs9XrR2kY4DACfZk9kozGfkc5/QUuENtz+rVGx 2B0An3AG4k0MJl0bmBV7PZpYl7R+YOEj =vhaT -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
