Tobi -

This helps a TON. Thank you so much!

Something else I just ran into last night is it seems
gpg.constants.import is unusable due to the :

>>> import gpg
>>> gpg.constants.import.NEW
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    gpg.constants.import.NEW
                       ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>> sys.version
'3.7.1 (default, Oct 22 2018, 10:41:28) \n[GCC 8.2.1 20180831]'

I presume that's something I'll need a bug report for.

Thanks again, Tobi!
