Hello, You'll probably want to learn a bit about the shell and the directory structure of unix-ish based systems before going too far into gpg. (if you're using linux, the shell is most likely called bash)
What you're attempting to do is execute a directory as if it were a command, what you may want to do is: echo $PATH There should be a bunch of pathnames delimited by colons, something like: /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin the directories listed in your PATH environment variable specify where the various programs are, so you can do a directory listing in each one if you wish to find out about the available commands. This isn't really a PGP question, and I'm thankful you asked it because I don't get many chances to answer peoples PGP questions, given that I don't really know much about PGP :-) Have fun with Linux, and be sure to check out FreeBSD too! ;-) Jamie -------------------------------------------- On Thu, 4/6/17, Tay Too <[email protected]> wrote: Subject: Opening the Gnupg interface on linux To: [email protected] Date: Thursday, April 6, 2017, 2:12 AM Hello everybody, very new to linux, and pretty unfamiliar with gnupg still, only used a few times. Yesterday i was able to open an actual window of Gnupg through my terminal with a command similar to ~/.gnupg now when i enter this it tells me this is a directory and wont do anything with it, any help? _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
