Hmm. But as far as I can tell, that's on a per-invokation basis. Extract from
the man-page:
--default-key name
Use name as default user ID for signatures. If
this is not used the default user ID is the
first user ID found in the secret keyring.
I would like to make gpg always go for my key even in response to a "clean"
invokation. This is good for (1) convenience, and (2) applications might not
support using --default-key.
I *could* do this by exporting all keys I really need, deleting my keyring
entirely, create my new default key, and re-import the keys I exported. But
is this the only way?
Thanks!
