SYNOPSIS
kgpg [Qt-options] [KDE-options] [options] file
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the Kgpg KDE Application. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page.
Kgpg is a simple graphical interface for gpg (http://gnupg.org). Basically, It allows you to encrypt and decrypt files or messages, and to
manage your keys.
Kgpg can be used in different ways:
- 1 - Open Kgpg. You will see an editor. Just type or paste your text in
- the editor. You can then easily encrypt/decrypt the text.
- 2 - On your Desktop or from a Konqueror window, right click on a file
- and you will see an encrypt file entry in the menu. just select it to encrypt the file. In the same way, simply left click on an encrypted file to decrypt it.
- 3 - If you enable Kgpg's Klipper action, as soon as you copy an
- encrypted text to the clipboard, a popup menu will ask you if you want to decrypt it.
