NAME

       gpgcompose - Generate a stream of OpenPGP packets

SYNOPSIS

       gpgcompose [[OPTION [ARGS]] ... ]

       gpgcompose --help

       gpgcompose OPTION --help

DESCRIPTION

       gpgcompose  generates  a stream of OpenPGP packets, including some which can include other nested packets
       within a layer of encryption.  The syntax on the command line isn't stable enough to document  currently,
       but additional hints and examples can be found from the command line using --help.

EXTERNAL DEPENDENCIES

       gpgcompose is not capable of performing secret key operations on its own.  Creation of any OpenPGP object
       that requires secret key operations (e.g., --signature) will need to speak  to  an  already-running  gpg-
       agent.

FILES

       Occasionally,  gpgcompose  will  need to look up existing public keys for reference (e.g., --public-key).
       It will do so in ~/.gnupg/keyring.kbx, or in $GNUPGHOME/keyring.kbx if that variable is set.
