#------------------------------------------------------------------------- # This is a Sample Config.TXT file for use with PGP 2.21 and PGPShell or # GenMsg. Please READ the COMMENTS, and adjust as required for your use! #------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Keywords are not case-sensitive. # MyName is substring (a PART of the string is sufficient) of default user # ID for secret key to make signatures. # If not set, PGP will use the first key on your secret keyring (the last # key you created) if you don't specify the user with -u # # NOTE PGPShell and GenMsg EXPECT this to be setup to point to YOUR KEY! # #MyName = "your name" #------------------------------------------------------------------------- # The language we will be using for displaying messages to the user. # # Available languages: # en = English (default), es = Spanish, fr = French, # de = German, nl = Dutch, it = Italian, esp = Esperanto, # lv = Latvian, lt3 = Lithuanian, ru = Russian # # Languages not yet available: # fi = Finnish, hu = Hungarian, no = Norwegian, pt = Portugese, # sv = Swedish, da = Danish, is = Icelandic, # zh = Chinese, ko = Korean, ar = Arabic, iw = Hebrew, # el = Greek, tr = Turkish, ja = Japanese # # Most of these codes are the ISO 639-1988 2-letter "Codes for # Representation of Names of Languages" # # NOTE: PGPShell and GenMsg work fine with NONE of these enabled! # #Language = en #------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Character set for displaying messages and for conversion of text files. # If you set this variable to cp850, ascii or alt_codes, PGP will do # character set conversions if TextMode = on or if you specify the -t # option when encrypting or signing a file. # # Available character sets: # latin1, cp850, alt_codes, koi8, ascii # # For MSDOS with a standard character set you should use cp850 to get # correct character translations. Russian character sets for MSDOS are # usually alt_codes. # # The default for CharSet is "noconv" which means no character conversion. # Note that noconv, latin1, and koi8 are all treated as equivalent. # # NOTE: PGPShell and GenMsg work FINE with none of these enabled! # #CharSet = cp850 #------------------------------------------------------------------------- # TMP is the directory name for PGP scratch files, usually a RAM disk. #TMP = "E:\temp" # Can be overridden by environment variable TMP #------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Pager is the file viewing program used for viewing messages with -m # If not set or set to "pgp", a built-in pager will be used. The pager set # in config.txt will override the environment variable PAGER. # # NOTE: This where you enable the utility List for viewing PGP output. # PGPShell and GenMsg work fine either way, but using List is nice...! # Pager = "list" #------------------------------------------------------------------------- # ArmorLines is the maximum number of lines per packet when creating a # transport armored file. Set to 0 to disable splitting in parts. # NOTE: SETTING THIS TO 0 (ZERO) is a REALLY GOOD IDEA for use with # GenMsg, PGP or SSD! Armorlines = 0 #------------------------------------------------------------------------- #--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!--!- # Default flags to set... # # NOTE: NONE of these should be enabled !!! # # Armor = on # Use -a flag for ASCII armor whenever applicable # TextMode = on # Attempt to use -t option where applicable # KeepBinary = on # Decrypt will not delete intermediate .pgp file # compress = off # off means suppress compression to aid debugging # showpass = on # Echo password when user types it # # ONE MORE TIME...

Unix systems probably # shouldn't need to worry about setting TZFix. # TZFix = 0 # # NOTE: GenMsg REQUIRES the environmental variable TZ to be set... so use # it instead of PGPs' TZFix parameter!!! #-------------------------------------------------------------------------
