A Key-gen-config file that autodeletes?

[Edward Khoo]

Hmmm....it did not work as I do not know the format to pass in the 
correct information for gpg to be able to automate the action.
Is there a default format? I tried with a semi-colon separated list -- 
eg. "1;1024;1m;My Name; myname@some.mail.net;Just my 
crypto;passphrase;passphrase"
and it does not work.

The error I  receive : --
gpg: -:1: missing colon

Anyone can enlighten me? :-)
