Most things i was able to find and understand online but i'm having trouble setting up pgp. I'd like to have an application to use instead of doing it in the terminal(if possible) but if you can only use the terminal that's cool too. Also i already have a pgp key from windows, should i just create a new one? The main problem i have is encrypting messages, and saving keys. I'd like to figure this out today hopefully. Any and all help is greatly appreciated ;DWhen you go to add/remove software, you need to add the component titled, "Plugins and utilities for encryption in GNOME". The file is seahorse-plugins-2.91.6-0.4.git...This plugin allows you to encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify directly from within gedit. Under gedit's Edit menu, if the seahorsae plugin is installed and activated, you should see under Edit, the Sign, Encrypt and Decrypt/Verify options. In gedit, go to Preferences, and choose the Plugins tab on the far right. Put a check in the box besides Text Encryption. This will activate the Seahorse gedit plugin, and turn on the Encrypt, Sign and Decrypt/Verify options under Edit in the gedit menu. That's extremely helpful, i have all my keys imported. I figured out how to encrypt a message via right clicking the file. But then i don't know what to do with the .pgp, how do i copy the message and place it here? Also i have the seahorse plugins installed or so yumex says. I'm guessing i didn't activate it, in which case how do i do that? Sorry for the dumb questions but hey we all gotta start at one point ::)..I lied this is what yumex says, that doesn't change me having no idea what to do though... ;)Code: [Select]Package seahorse-plugins-2.91.6-0.4.git1e35fd9.fc17.x86_64 is obsoleted by seahorse-nautilus-3.4.0-2.fc17.x86_64 which is already installedIn gedit, go to Edit --> Preferences, and choose the Plugins tab on the far right. Put a check in the box besides Text Encryption. This will activate the Seahorse gedit plugin, and turn on the Encrypt, Sign and Decrypt/Verify options under Edit in the gedit menu.
