My unlearned response: The short ID of a key is constituted by the last 8 characters of its fingerprint preceded by the characters 0x The long ID, the last sixteen such characters. Terminal will accept IDs (short or long) without 0x Most keyservers will "prefer" with 0x The fingerprint characters are hexadecimal (base 16), using a combination of digits 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and letters A B C D E F, to represent "Real numbers". Don't ask more :-) Charly _______________________________________________ gpgtools-users mailing list [email protected] FAQ: http://www.gpgtools.org/faq.html Changes: http://lists.gpgtools.org/mailman/listinfo/gpgtools-users Unsubscribe: http://lists.gpgtools.org/mailman/options/gpgtools-users/[email protected]?unsub=Unsubscribe&unsubconfirm=1 This email sent to: [email protected]
