**** OpenPGP_Applet - GNOME applet for OpenPGP text encryption ****
OpenPGP_Applet is a GNOME applet written in Perl that allows encryption and
decryption of the clipboard's content with a symmetric cipher using a
passphrase. This is a graphical front-end on top of GnuPG.
Asymmetric decryption and clipboard verification are also supported.
Formerly a part of Tails - tails.boum.org, now available separately.
IMPORTANT:
OpenPGP_Applet does not handle passphrase input. Since it also does not offer
terminal interaction unless explicitly run from there, it relies in practice on
some kind of GnuPG agent such as Pinentry, Seahorse 2.x or GNOME Keyring 3.x to
manage passphrase input.
Full user documentation, with screenshots, is available at
https://tails.boum.org/doc/encryption_and_privacy/gpgapplet/
INSTALLATION
OpenPGP_Applet is packaged as a (mostly) standard Perl module.
To install, you'll need Perl and a few Perl module available from CPAN and,
chances are, as package for your OS.
Just run
perl Makefile.PL
If you miss some required modules, it will warn you. Install them (via CPAN or
using your preferred packaging system)ΒΈ
Then, as root or using sudo :
make install
Installation will take place in /usr/local by default.
USAGE
To launch the applet, run "openpgp-applet". It should sit in the system tray or
the notification area.
