I would always like to use the GUI version of entering my GPG passphrase. Currently my pinentry program is set the same on my laptop as my desktop. But the desktop always asks for my passphrase on the command line, and my laptop always asks using the GUI. What do I need to set to force the use of the GUI on the desktop? Current ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf pinentry-program /usr/local/MacGPG2/libexec/pinentry-mac.app/Contents/MacOS/pinentry-mac default-cache-ttl 600 max-cache-ttl 7200 Current ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf default-key 26A32A76 require-cross-certification keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve keyserver hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net auto-key-locate hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net keyserver-options no-honor-keyserver-url comment GPG cert-digest-algo SHA512 default-preference-list SHA512 SHA384 SHA256 SHA224 AES256 AES192 AES CAST5 ZLIB BZIP2 ZIP Uncompressed personal-digest-preferences SHA512 SHA384 SHA256 SHA224 no-emit-version use-agent
