Gnome-gpg is a command line tool that simplifies the use of gpg by enabling the storage of the passphrase in the gnome-keyring.
Gnome-gpg is an efficient commandline wrapper that simplifies the use of gpg by storing its passphrase in gnome-keyring. This software serves as a direct alternative to the unmaintained quintuple-agent. Please note that this application does not function as a keyring management program and has no plans to become one.
Gnome-gpg is compatible with the following algorithms: Pubkey: RSA, RSA-E, RSA-S, ELG-E, DSA Cipher: 3DES, CAST5, BLOWFISH, AES, AES192, AES256, TWOFISH Hash: MD5, SHA1, RIPEMD160, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, SHA224 Compression: Uncompressed, ZIP, ZLIB, BZIP2.
To use gpg with gnome-gpg, you must first understand the syntax for the commands. The default operation depends on the input data. The following are some of the commands supported by gnome-gpg:
- The -s, --sign [file] command makes a signature
- The --clearsign [file] command creates a clear text signature
- The -b, --detach-sign command makes a detached signature
- The -e, --encrypt command encrypts data
- The -c, --symmetric command is used for encryption only with symmetric cipher
- The -d, --decrypt command decrypts data (default)
Other commands include --verify, --list-keys, --list-sigs, --check-sigs, --fingerprint, -K, --list-secret-keys, --gen-key, --delete-keys, --delete-secret-keys, --sign-key, --lsign-key, --edit-key, --gen-revoke, --export, --send-keys, --recv-keys, --search-keys, --refresh-keys, --import, --card-status, --card-edit, --change-pin, --update-trustdb, and --print-md algo [files].
In terms of options, gnome-gpg provides -a, --armor, -r, --recipient NAME, -u, --local-user, -z N, --textmode, -o, --output, -v, --verbose, -n, --dry-run, -i, --interactive, --openpgp, and --pgp2.
It's important to note that the application provides a man page that serves as a complete listing of all commands and options. Gnome-gpg is a great option for those looking for a simple and efficient tool to use gpg with ease. Some examples of commands you can use include -se -r Bob [file], --clearsign [file], --detach-sign [file], --list-keys [names], and --fingerprint [names].
