1. Yes.

2. The "~/.gnupg/options" file was the config file in older versions. It is=
=20
replaced by the gpg.conf file. If gnupg.conf is available "options" is=20
ignored.

=2D From man gpg:

=46ILES
=20
       ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf
                 Default configuration file

       ~/.gnupg/options
                 Old style configuration  file;  only  used  when
                 gpg.conf is not found
