Sorry, I thought that was obvious. I want to check the file, in this case the ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf file for proper syntax, etc. I am attempting to use in in the same fashion that I use "postconf" to check Postfix's configuration files. Many applications have utilities to check their config files, "Dovecot", "ClamAV", etcetera. I thought that the "gpgconf" utility would accomplish the same thing. While the documentation does not specifically state that it DOES work on the gpg.conf file, nothing says that it doesn't either. In my humble opinion, the documentation is slightly ambiguous.
