No telnet access at all - using MyShell php shell emulator. Compiled it without
any trouble at all, but it all seems to be too interactive  which MyShell can't
do.

I got the windoze version of gpg, made a key on my local machine, tried to import:

--import filename
but again silence in the response.

I can't see that there's any other way to do it!

must have written a php front end for this!
