No there is no way to do this. The best suggestion for all automated systems is not to use a passphrase. If you really want a passphrase and you require full control over it you have three choices: - Write your own pinentry and send CANCEL back until the desired passphrase is requested. Then send the right passphrase. - Write a simple pinentry to always send a CANCEL back (GnuPG 2.1 will have an option to emulate this). The use gpg-preset-passphrase to seed gpg-agent with the desired passphrase. - Use --status-fd/--command-fd. These options allow you to pass a passphrase to gpg entirely under script control. They work even with GnuPG 1.4. Shalom-Salam, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
