Dear Li I use this one gpg --version gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.8 man gpg will do. --gen-key Generate a new key pair. This command is normally only used interactively. is my option from my man page, http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/ is the one I use http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/OpenPGP-Key-Management.html#OpenPGP-Key-Management - --gen-key Generate a new key pair. This command is normally only used interactively. I did see some options i know I have to use with two dashes which has only one dash in the docu, but it is always better to try the man page or gpg --help Sincerely yours, Morten Gulbrandsen 主バイトホイットフィールド _____________________________________________________________________ Java programmer, C++ programmer CAcert Assurer, GSWoT introducer, thawte Notary Gossamer Spider Web of Trust http://www.gswot.org Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (SunOS) Comment: For keyID and its URL see the OpenPGP message header iEYEARECAAYFAkkJNboACgkQ9ymv2YGAKVQQywCgvXhzF1Hk1tSerymb/MxWdl2L DkAAn01t4dgPgdJ/3itPUUTJ9rVZiSte =hsFu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
