I would be ok with any free license, although I'd prefer at least
LGPL.

Well, the new help strings is 160 new lines, not that there's anything
complicated going on, so maybe that qualifies as too long ;).

I assume you mean the `hlp_*` strings in `gpgme-tool.c`, which is what
I was fleshing out.  I think it would also be useful to add some
comments to the texinfo in `doc/` giving a general overview, but I
have little texinfo-fu ;).

If the documentation patches look good, I think I'll add support for a
~/.gnupg/S.gpgme-tool socket next, to increase the similarity with
gpg-agent operation.

Cheers,
Trevor

p.s. Marcus, you signed your last message with FCD2A293, which I
haven't been able to find anywhere.  Your only keys on
pool.sks-keyservers.net seem to be 87978569 and 36E7CD09.  Could you
point me to a copy of your key?
