I'm no tech expert, but it interest me. Now how did you get the above
information?

I'm learning to use GnuPG. I have used the gpg.man file for certain
circumstances for commands from the DOS command line, but typically
use with Windows front end GPGshell.

BTW I thought I'd copy to the list for other relative beginners like
myself.  Thanks!
