Is this a Turing test? I wrote a private reply to try to find if that is what is happening. I mean, is "--sign" as opposed to "-sign" that hard to understand? Here is what -sign chould probably mean: -s same as --sign -i same as --interactive -g NONSENSE -n same as --dry-run. That is because -sign is the equivalent of -s -i -g -n. My private reply was with the aim of convincing a human being the right way to do things and that gpg & gpg2 do the standard of a single dash means all the letters after the single dash are combined options. If you want all of the characters being considered a single atomic identity then you precede them with a double dash. A lot more detail was added with an example to show how easy it is.
