I tried that, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. Then, as an
experiment, I tried setting it to 2, and observed that including just 1
digit in the passphrase resulted in no warning (again suggesting that the
setting was not having any effect).
But I don't even think I'm using the agent (unless I misunderstand): I'm
simply running a command like the following:
gpg2 --output *outputfilename* --symmetric *inputfilename*
and waiting for the program to prompt me to enter the passphrase each time.
Sorry, I should have made that clear.
(Thank you for your quick responses.)
