This is what I use the fall back as part of MacGPG2: (* start-gpg-agent Part of the MacGPG2 project - http://macgpg2.sourceforge.net Released under v3 of the GPL *) -- Sleep for two seconds. delay 2 -- Try to contact gpg-agent set gpgAgentRunning to do shell script "/usr/local/bin/gpg-agent >& /dev/null; echo $?; exit 0" -- If that fails, look for env file. if gpgAgentRunning > 0 then set gpgAgentRunning to do shell script "[ -f $HOME/.gpg-agent-info ] && (source $HOME/.gpg-agent-info && export GPG_AGENT_INFO && /usr/local/bin/gpg-agent >& /dev/null) ; echo $?; exit 0" end if -- If that also fails, start a new copy of gpg-agent if gpgAgentRunning > 0 then do shell script "/usr/local/bin/gpg-agent --daemon --use-standard-socket --write-env > /dev/null" end if Should be easy to understand and implement in another scripting language.
