question using gpg...

This was discussed a few days ago on this list, but I realized I sent my
solution to the questioner, not the list. So here goes:

Export the keys from your current version of PGP into an ASCII armored file.
If it's a command-line version, probably something like:
     pgp -a -kx <userid> exportpub.asc pubring.pkr
     pgp -a -kx <userid> exportsec.asc secring.skr

If you have a GUI version of PGP (e.g. Mac or Windows), follow the GUI
instructions for key export, using ASCII armor rather than binary format.

To import into GnuPG, do this for both public and private keys:
     Gpg --import exportpub.asc
     gpg --import --allow-secret-key-import exportsec.asc

Subject: question using gpg...


I just installed gpg on my Mac OS X system. I was using PGP 7.0.3 
before (for mac).  Is there anyway to use my keys from before with 
gpg?  Is there any way of importing these PGP 7.0.3 keys into GPG 
(1.0.6)?  If so, could someone describe the process to me? Thanks.
