Note that this help file needs to be UTF-8 encoded. When looking

for a help item, GnuPG scans the help files in the following order

(assuming a GNU or Unix system):

/etc/gnupg/help.LL_TT.txt

/etc/gnupg/help.LL.txt

/etc/gnupg/help.txt

/usr/share/gnupg/help.LL_TT.txt

/usr/share/gnupg/help.LL.txt

/usr/share/gnupg/help.txt

Here LL_TT denotes the full name of the current locale with the

territory (.e.g. "de_DE"), LL denotes just the locale name

(e.g. "de"). The first matching item is returned. To put a dot or

a hash mark at the beginning of a help text line, it needs to be

prefixed with ". ". A single dot may be used to terminated ahelp

entry.

.#pinentry.qualitybar.tooltip

[remove the hash mark from the key to enable this text]

This entry is just an example on how to customize the tooltip shown

when hovering over the quality bar of the pinentry. We don't

install this text so that the hardcoded translation takes

precedence. An administrator should write up a short help to tell

the users about the configured passphrase constraints and save that

to /etc/gnupg/help.txt.

This bar indicates the quality of the passphrase entered above.

As long as the bar is shown in red, GnuPG considers the passphrase too weak to accept. Please ask your administrator for details about the configured passphrase constraints. .
