Hi! It seems like I could have found a bug: In gpg 1.4.2 the option '--ask-sig-expire' does not work. If you type 'gpg --ask-sig-expire -s Filename', you will not be asked for the duration of the signature, like you will be, if you type 'gpg --ask-cert-expire --sign-key UID'. It does not work, if you put it in the options file either. Dirk
