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
