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.
