RE: Need a GUI for e ncrypt/decrypt in Ubuntu 11.10

2012-06-11 Thread Sam Smith

I did not mean to imply that all other GPG GUIs are no good. GnuPG Shell is a 
fine app and there is much to like about it. I did (if I remember correctly) 
have trouble figuring out how to use it to list signatures on keys. And how to 
sign keys. Overall, I found GPA to be a better experience.

RE: Need a GUI for e ncrypt/decrypt in Ubuntu 11.10

2012-06-11 Thread Sam Smith

I tried every GUI I could find for GPG over the past 2 years. My absolute 
favorite is GNU Privacy Assistant (GPA). 

I do believe I have tried every GUI option there is for Windows and Ubuntu. 
Originally, I couldn't find anything I liked on Windows and consequently was 
forced to learn the command line (which is probably not a bad thing). Later, on 
Ubuntu I discovered GPA and Seahorse. Seahorse is good app, but GPA is much 
much better IMHO and I always find myself using GPA as default app for dealing 
with keys.

I could not figure out how to get GPA onto Windows. It looked like it was 
available for Windows but in the end I could not figure it out. Regardless, I 
mostly use Ubuntu now and I am always happy to be able to use GPA. When on 
Windows, I always have to use the command line because I do not like any of the 
other options.

This is wonderful app and you have done fantastic job with it!  I do encourage 
you most fervently to not abandon it because I think it's the best. You really 
do great work and it is so appreciated by all of us so much! Thank you so much!

I cannot recommend a book, but I can link to this Wikipedia article,

RE: Need a GUI for e ncrypt/decrypt in Ubuntu 11.10

2012-06-11 Thread Sam Smith

Hi.

The GUI I like the best for GnuPG is GNU Privacy Assistant. It is "gpa" in 
synaptic. [sudo apt-get install gpa].

I don't know if GPA does encrypt/decrypt though (I use command line for most 
everything). 

Another option is the plugins for Seahorse ("seahorse-plugins"). You can add 
[sudo apt-get install seahorse-plugins] to get right-click functionalities for 
Seahorse. With this you can get OSDnotify displays of verified keys etc.

GUI wise though, I'm a huge fan of the GNU Privacy Assistant.

Need a GUI for e ncrypt/decrypt in Ubuntu 11.10

2012-06-11 Thread .
I just "upgraded" to Ubuntu 11.10 and lost the "right click to
encrypt/decrypt" a file which, I think, Seahorse utilities provided.

I'm trying to install KGPG but it Software Center won't download it.  I
tried apt-get install and that doesn't download the package either.



Does anyone have a GUI that will accomplish all key management and also
provide for easy file encrypt/decrypt/verify signature etc, etc?
