Yes. "gpg -v --version" will give you the algorithm numbers along
with the algorithm names. However, the algorithm numbers are not
really relevant to anything unless you're writing OpenPGP software.
For years now, all programs have referred to AES256 as "AES256" and
not "cipher 9".
Version will not report it that way, but decryption errors will.
Version does report it that way.
Not quite what I meant. (I should really not post on a Monday
until I am fully awake. Which means posting on Tuesday.)
Actually what I meant to say is that the cypher numbers is actually
useful if you are trying to figure out what you are missing from
older versions.
