The workaround I am using for now is below. It allows The Bat! to find
and use GnuPG. But GnuPG operations take about three times as long
when called from TB! under Wine compared to my Windows setup. Is this
sluggishness normal? And does anybody have a better workaround?

Workaround:-

In Wine's Program Files directory, create a symlink GnuPG to the 
Windows folder where gpg.exe and iconv.dll reside. Add that location 
to Wine's PATH environment variable as C:\Program Files\GnuPG.

(To avoid duplicating my GnuPG keyrings and configuration files for
the test, I also created a symlink GnuPG from Wine's
user1\Application Data directory to the corresponding Windows
location.)

How do you get The Bat! under Wine to use GnuPG?

2012-10-23 Thread MFPA 
Hi

I'm thinking of switching my PC to Linux, and as I have been unable to 
find a decent Linux email client, I am experimenting with using Wine 
to run The Bat! on my Linux partition.

Can anybody who already runs The Bat! under Wine on Linux tell me how
to get TB! to use GnuPG? Is there a way to get The Bat! under Wine to
use the GnuPG already present on my Linux installation, or do I need
to add the Windows GnuPG.exe to Wine's PATH environment variable?

Wine version 1.3.28
Lubuntu version 11.10
The Bat! version 4.0.38
GnuPG version 1.4.11 on my Linux partition, 1.4.12 on Windows

I appreciate this is slightly off-topic, being properly a question 
about Wine rather than about The Bat!.
