gpgcompose(1)               General Commands Manual              gpgcompose(1)

NAME
       gpgcompose - Generate a stream of OpenPGP packets

SYNOPSIS
       gpgcompose [[OPTION [ARGS]] ... ]

       gpgcompose --help

       gpgcompose OPTION --help

DESCRIPTION
       gpgcompose  generates a stream of OpenPGP packets, including some which
       can include other nested packets within a  layer  of  encryption.   The
       syntax  on  the command line isn't stable enough to document currently,
       but additional hints and examples can be found from  the  command  line
       using --help.

EXTERNAL DEPENDENCIES
       gpgcompose  is  not  capable of performing secret key operations on its
       own.  Creation of any OpenPGP object that requires  secret  key  opera-
       tions (e.g., --signature) will need to speak to an already-running gpg-
       agent.

FILES
       Occasionally, gpgcompose will need to look up existing public keys  for
       reference (e.g., --public-key).  It will do so in ~/.gnupg/keyring.kbx,
       or in $GNUPGHOME/keyring.kbx if that variable is set.
