Ah,ok.
By the way, why is there no option like "--use-secret"?
I know, GnuPG has some magic to use the correct secret key to decode
data, but if you have some (a lot) secret key, this magic may waste time
or be inconvenient in some way.
A "--use-secret-key" option would give the user full control to use a
chosen secret key without depending on any auto mechanism. Maybe
something to consider.
