Hi,

I would like to use Gnupg to encrypt, sign… documents.

I’ve downloaded the Manual, it’s quite extensive. So the learning curve is proportional :)

I’ve tried the GPA GUI, but with it, it seem impossible to generate an ECC key…

So what would be your recommendation to be able to generate ECC keys, be able to encrypt, sign etc… with or without GUI.

Thanks.

      Don’t take it personally.

      It’s how the guy who wrote the blog sounds like, it’s not toward you.

      I tend to have a grain of scepticism when someone is declaring high and loud that something widely used us /just the worst/.

      Also, it just happens his alternative is just: “use this instead, its made in Rust”

        These remarks could discourage others from reading a useful and well-written article.

        I still use GnuPG on occasion, but I’ve benefited from incorporatingsops and age into repositories. They’re pretty slick.
