Hi everyone,
I need to be able to read some GPG encrypted files within pd.
I can unpack the file using a command line with [shell]. However I get an error message (appearing only in "nogui") saying: "gpg agent is not available in this session".
So the file gets copied to the destination file but is still encrypted. Both, in the graphical and nogui system.
Doing the same thing with the same command lines in Ubuntu 8.04 using the console I don't get any errors.
Any ideas if GPG has to be enabled for pd? If yes, how?
Well, the problem may also be sending the password. I simply delayed a second message to send the password to [shell] after sending the decrypting message.
Thanx for any ideas, Ingo

Probably the GPG agent is not availabe in this session. ;)
I'm no gpg expert, but there are various command line options related to a gpg agent mentioned in the manual ("man gpg"), like
--use-agent --no-use-agent
Try to use the GnuPG-Agent. With this option, GnuPG first tries to connect to the agent before it asks for a passphrase. --no-use-agent disables this option.
--gpg-agent-info Override the value of the environment variable 'GPG_AGENT_INFO'. This is only used when --use-agent has been given. Given that this option is not anymore used by gpg2, it should be avoided if possible.
Maybe some of these can help.
