Description Mathieu Roy 2005-03-23 17:39:26 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

I have several files that have been encrypted with the option for-your-eyes-only

man gpg:

       --for-your-eyes-only

       --no-for-your-eyes-only
                 Set  the  `for  your  eyes  only'  flag in the message.  This
                 causes GnuPG to refuse to save the file unless  the  --output
                 option  is  given,  and PGP to use the "secure viewer" with a
                 Tempest-resistant font to display the message.   This  option
                 overrides  --set-filename.   --no-for-your-eyes-only disables
                 this option.


I think that's a serious flaw that kgpg disregard this. In no way kgpg by default should output the decrypted content in a file, unless the user specifically requested it.
