When running GnuPg on Win98SE, the windows port on cygwin from bash version 1.3.10 and 1.3.6, generating a revoke key gpg does not stop at the confirmation question, also gpg --gen-key automatically answers the first question.
For example: $ gpg --gen-revoke [EMAIL PROTECTED] sec 1024D/6829503F 2002-03-31 My Name <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Create a revocation certificate for this key? << gpg did not stop here $ The problem is that somehow it automatically answered with a return, and gpg assumed the answer was no by default, as a result I cannot create a revoke key. As a side note if I end the command: gpg --gen-revoke [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a Control-J (NL) gpg does stop at the "Create a revo .. " question. Another example of --gen-key $ gpg --gen-key ... Greeting Please select what kind of key you want: (1) DSA and ElGamal (default) (2) DSA (sign only) (3) ElGamal (sign and encrypt) Your selection? << gpg did not stop here and wait for me DSA keypair will have 1024 bits. About to generate a new ELG-E keypair ..... What keysize do you want? (1024) << gpg did stop here to wait for an answer Under WinXpPro and NT4 gpg (running bash) waits for the user as expected.
