Default behavior of `gpg --decrypt` is to dump the decrypted data to stdout even if it's a binary file and stdout is a tty. Great 😮‍💨

Oh nice, and `gpg - -encrypt` writes to a file by default, so you get sensible behavior when you encrypt but then when you go to decrypt the file again, boom, bunch of garbage on your terminal

Great software. And they wonder why the PGP thing never took off

@fraggle the only good thing about gpg's cli is the search you get when you gpg -k <some text>

you know, -k

to ksearch

@fraggle i guess i should probably mention that -k lists keys you've added to gpg, and the search thingy is actually in every input that needs a key specified

(i mostly use -k like an address book search though)

but still! gpg has a pretty wild cli interface, and could probably make about a hundred fewer bad assumptions
