Re: exmh and gnupg

I'm not a big expert on exmh/pgp integration, but I will see what I
can do to help - I'm also cc'ing exmh-workers.  If you have the
"gpg" program on your PATH, and a keyring, then "it should just work".

The "existence" criteria
for a PGP subsystem is in the extrasInit.tcl function Pgp_Init.

        if { [file exists [set pgp($v,pubring)]] &&
             [file isdirectory [set pgp($v,path)]] &&
             [file exists $pgp($v,path)/$pgp($v,executable,version)]} {

                 catch {exec $pgp($v,path)/$pgp($v,executable,version) 
$pgp($v,executable,versionflags)} voutput

                 ExmhLog "exec returned $voutput"

                 if {[regexp $pgp($v,executable,versionregexp) $voutput]} {

The various gpg settings are in pgpBase.tcl

set pgp(supportedversions) [list pgp pgp5 gpg pgp6]
set pgp(gpg,enabled) 0
set pgp(gpg,fullName) "GnuPG"
set pgp(gpg,executable,key) gpg
set pgp(gpg,executable,verify) gpg
set pgp(gpg,executable,encrypt) gpg
set pgp(gpg,executable,sign) gpg
set pgp(gpg,executable,version) gpg
set pgp(gpg,executable,versionflags) "--version"
set pgp(gpg,executable,versionregexp) "^gpg"
    set pgp(gpg,defaultPath) "$env(GNUPGHOME)"
    set pgp(gpg,defaultPath) "$env(HOME)/.gnupg"
set pgp(gpg,configFile) "$pgp(gpg,defaultPath)/options"
set pgp(gpg,pubring) "$pgp(gpg,defaultPath)/pubring.gpg"
set pgp(gpg,secring) "$pgp(gpg,defaultPath)/secring.gpg"
set pgp(gpg,pubringBkp) "$pgp(gpg,defaultPath)/pubring.gpg~"
set pgp(gpg,keyGenCmd) "rm -f $pgp(gpg,pubringBkp) && gpg --gen-key"
set pgp(gpg,ownPattern) ""
set pgp(gpg,pat_MenuInner) {GPG}
set pgp(gpg,pat_Version) "Version:\[ \t\]*(GNUPG|GnuPG).*"
set pgp(gpg,list_Alien) {pgp5 pgp6 pgp}
set pgp(pgp,list_Alien) {pgp5 pgp6 gpg}
set pgp(pgp5,list_Alien) {gpg pgp pgp6}
set pgp(pgp6,list_Alien) {pgp pgp5 gpg}
