It is just coincidence that PGP uses the same format and that it resembles the defined transport format. So don't blame gpg if the format of the keyring changes at one point in time and messes up all your scripts.

PGP Desktop & GnuPG

Our subscription to PGP Desktop is about to expire and it says the functionality will be reduced to that of PGP Freeware. All we do with it is encrypt files (not emails), so I think this is ok. I'm not sure if the PGP Desktop gui interface will stop working or not, so thought we could use GnuPG and Gpg4Win which we currently use on another project to replace PGP Desktop. > > Thanks for any help. I was unable to 'trim' this Reply cause You have a word wrap issue. However; for what You are doing, the Freeware version should perform just Fine. Answer to Main Question; YES, You can Import your PGP Keyrings into GnuPG. Fact of the matter; I know several individuals using *one* Keyring for both PGP & GPG. Personally, I prefer GnuPG over PGP for several reasons; the most primary being that I find more functionality in GnuPG. HTH!
