Hi,
Thanks for yor help.

No this is part of creating public and private key to exchange secure 
information on line.

I have more questions:
1- After issuing above command, what/where is the digital fingerprint of PGP 
public key?
2- I am suppose to provide .jpg screen shot of the fingerprint of public key to 
other end,
How .jpg image is used to verify the public key?


Many thanks in advance,
Bizhan
