The possibilities are greater if you use both together, taking advantage
of each of their strengths. In this way, I actually much prefer using
GPG to PGP at present. My only problem is the key auto-retrieval problem
that GPG has when run on NT-based systems.

Yes. The plugin isn't that developed to include these components and I
suspect this is so because the existence of GPG Shell is known. :-)

JN> including poor key management.

You can't manage keys via the TB! plugin. You have to use the GPG CLI.

JN> The tray options do not produce exta work, just extra control.

Well, mostly yes. However, if you're in the habit of signing a lot of
messages in a predictable fashion, nothing beats setting this up to be
automated and forgetting about it, especially if you use multiple keys.
GPG Shell doesn't offer this automation, but TB!'s plugin does. :-)
