>1)      Tried exporting the private and the public key from pgp 
using the commands:
pgp -kx " " pubkey.pgp                               
pgp -kx " " sec.pgp ~/.pgp/secring.skr


pgp commandline makes it extremely difficult to extract a secret 
key.

the -kx commands extract only public keys,
(there was a workaround that Disastry showed me once many years 
ago, but i forgot it :-((  since it has been easier to just use the 
following gnupg command) :

gpg --import secring.skr

and gnupg will import both the public and secret keys


(n.b.  if anyone knows the proper pgp commandline syntax to extract 
a pgp secret key from the keyring, please post)

Thanks,
