Export public and secret keys to the same file

Aha! Therein lies a tale. I must confess that I have this problem with a
Windows version. gpg itself works fine on my NT box but I think the shell is
doing wierd things when I try to cat files.

gpg --export --output foo works fine but gpg --export > foo doesn't. The
same goes for appending the export output to a file or appending a file to
another. From minimal research, what I think is happening is that cmd seems
to be replacing all 0xa characters with the 0xd 0xa sequence.

Its not a problem really as long as I don't depend on cmd to do the
appending for me. But I was just wondering if there was already a way to
export both kinds of keys to the same file.

Anything wrong with "gpg --export-keys > foo ; gpg --export-secret-keys >>
foo"
