Binary install packages are now available for Mac OS X; PowerPC only at
this stage with Universal binaries to follow.

Please follow the instructions at
http://www.py-soft.co.uk/~benjamin/download/mac-gpg/MacOS%20gpg-agent%20and%20pinentry%20HOWTO.txt


This package brings the power of gnupg v1.9.20 and OpenPGP Smartcards to
the Mac!  Authenticate under SSH using your card from any SSH
application including Fugu!  See
http://www.py-soft.co.uk/~benjamin/download/mac-gpg/fugu%20plus%20macgpg2.jpg
for a screen shot.

Use my native pinentry-mac program to cache your passphrase with
gpg-agent under, for example, enigmail!

Fully compatible with mac-gpg and gpg v1.4.*.  No more compiling from
source!  No more darwin ports!  No more QT libraries!  Just click and
install!


This package is an alpha release and will be fully integrated into the
mac-gpg project once fully tested.


Feedback welcome.
