GPG

GPG is the standard encryption tool.

Use Cases

gpg can be used to:

Sign things with your signing subkey
Read encrypted messages sent to you with your encryption subkey
Send encrypted messages to other people with their public key
Verify the authenticity of someone's messages and other data with their public key

You should not use gpg if:

Export GPG_TTY in your shell's init script. This is how you would do it in fish:

export GPG_TTY=(tty)
