And that is the
reason to use key pairs, because a singe key can't do both functions.
The above statement is not accurate.
A careful reading of http://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual.html#INTRO is
recommended.
This is the Spanish version:
it must be defined at the moment of creating the key. And that is the
reason to use key pairs, because a singe key can't do both functions.
Key pair in most contexts actually refers to the set of
public key + private key, not to key + subkey(s) -- at least that seems to be
the common usage

I must assume you meant 'hollowed'.

Hi,
1. Is the AES-Encryption of a file by gnupg vulnerable to
known-plaintext attacks ?
2. Does this depend on the lenght of the plaintext ?
2.1 Is a strong Passphrase even safe, if the size of the known
plaintext is just 1 Byte or even 10 GB ?
3. Is it possible for sombody, who does not
