I have two instances of GnuPG installed on a Windows 7 OS. I also use an application that appears to have installed an instance of it for its own use and put it into one of its separate folders along with some of the files needed with it, including "gpg.exe" and a unique "gpg.conf" file, among others. However, when I go to that folder, in which this third instance of gpg was placed, with a command prompt in Windows and type ".\gpg.exe -h", the initial output from this command includes these lines:
Home: %APPDATA%/gnupg Supported algorithms: Pubkey: RSA, RSA-E, RSA-S, ELG-E, DSA What puzzles me is the line with "Home". I have two questions about it. First, where is it getting that environment variable(?) called "Home" since I do not show it listed among the environment variables I can see in Windows when I issue the "set" command to show me all of them? Secondly, why does "Home" point to the path it does instead of pointing to the current directory path for which I issued the command ".\gpg.exe -h". If there is a unique "gpg.conf" in this folder designed to work with this third instance of "gpg.exe", shouldn't "Home" also be this current directory? Otherwise, it would not see the commands and options I included in its special "gpg.conf". Is that not so? Thanks. John A. Wallace The pen is mightier than the sword, but only if you get in the first stroke.
