Ah thanks, that was the problem. Would be helpful if this page<http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg-devel/Agent-GENKEY.html#Agent-GENKEY>were updated to reflect the correct syntax for future users.
Was just using socat for testing purposes. My system requires the lowest latency and fewest memcpy's possible so if I continue with the socket interface I will use it directly. Since posting I've come across the Qt Cryptographic Architecture (qca) which looks to be a better approach for me as I'm already developing in Qt.
