Options may be specified on the command line or in an options file.
|
|
The default location of the options file is
|
|
<literal>~/.gnupg/options</literal>.
|
|
When specifying options in the options file, omit the leading two
|
|
dashes and instead use simply the option name followed by any
|
|
arguments.
|
|
Lines in the file with a hash (<literal>#</literal>) as the
|
|
first non-white-space character are ignored.
