NAME

       pinentry-x2go - PIN or pass-phrase add-on for X2Go Client

SYNOPSIS

       pinentry-x2go [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION

       pinentry-x2go  is  an  add-on  for X2Go Client. It allows for secure entry of PINs or pass phrases.  That
       means it tries to take care that the entered information is not swapped to  disk  or  temporarily  stored
       anywhere.

       pinentry-x2go  is typically used internally by x2goclient evoked by gpg-agent.  Users don't normally have
       a reason to call it directly.

OPTIONS

       --version
              Print the program version and licensing information.

       --help Print a usage message summarizing the most useful command-line options.

       --debug, -d
              Turn on some debugging.  Mostly useful for the maintainers.  Note that this may  reveal  sensitive
              information like the entered pass phrase.

       --enhanced, -e
              Ask for timeouts and insurance, too.  Note that this is currently not fully supported.

       --no-global-grab, -g
              Grab  the keyboard only when the window is focused.  Use this option if you are debugging software
              using pinentry-x2go; otherwise you may not be able to to access your X session anymore (unless you
              have other means to connect to the machine to kill pinentry-x2go).

       --parent-wid N
              Use  window  ID  N  as the parent window for positioning the window.  Note, that this is not fully
              supported by all flavors of pinentry.

       --display STRING, --ttyname STRING, --ttytype STRING, --lc-type STRING, --lc-messages STRING
              These options are used to pass localization information to pinentry-qt.  They are required because
              pinentry-qt  is  usually  called by some background process which does not have any information on
              the locale and terminal to use.  Assuan protocol options are an  alternative  way  to  pass  these
              information.
