Hash: SHA256

Hi All,

I actually have a couple of questions regarding passphrases - speaking
mainly of symmetric encryption (e.g. gpg -c).

The first question regards the maximum length of a passphrase - I would
like to know what it is in GnuPG.  I know there is a practical limit to
what someone could type, but I am looking more for the limit within the
program.

The second one is, how does GnuPG handle "non-printable" characters,
other than new line characters?  What I mean by this is basically
anything you cannot directly type with a normal keyboard (upper ASCII
and the lower ASCII characters).

TIA
Regards,
Chris
