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.

    If you use emacs, you can set up gnupg integration for easy encryption and decryption of files.

    I would also read up on expiration of keys, and how you can export (backup) and import a key. The latter can also be useful if you want to use the same key on multiple devices.
