I have the man page open, and I did an rpm -qa for gpg (it doesn't show up).
I tried yum list gpg (nothing showed up here either).

while reading the man page, I had a second terminal open and had typed gpg
at the command line.  I accidentally hit return, and apparently, GPG is
installed.  It gave me a warning that says 'using insecure memory' and then 
created a home/john/.gnupg directory, and a gpg.conf file in that directory.
I got another warning that 'options in /home/john/.gnupg/gpg.conf are  not
yet active during this run' and two "keyring"(s) were created. One called
secring, and the other pubring.  Now it wants me to "go ahead and type your
message"...

Will the man page and the faq at www.gnuorg.org/faq.html tell me how to go
through the setup of this (since apparently I've initiated it)?

Thanks, Alexander -
