Hello gnupg-users!
I have recently been required to use GnuPG to encrypt messages, and have been
endeavouring to create a master key however I think I have fumbled.
I created and deleted some keys while I was trying to work it out and now I
cannot make heads or tails of my keyring.
Quite simply there are keys and subkeys and secret keys and they all seem to
have the same ID. I haven't shared anything as yet, so I would like to start
again and hopefully achieve some clarity in the process on my second attempt.

Also, I need to create and export a public key *and* an encryption subkey. I've
been reading everything I can find online, but honestly I'm finding it to be
quite difficult to discipher.

I am using Arch Linux, with fish shell and micro text editor.
Thanks in advance, and I apologise if I'm asking basic questions, it's not
often I feel like a novice but this encryption business has me doing so.
Kind Regards.
