PGP

Hey guys.. Another pgp question that i can't get answered at /darketmarketnoobs. I have everything down using pgp. I have the vendors key imported, my message copied and encrypted, but where do i find the result of encrypting the message? I click encrypt, select the vendors public key, hit ok and then it just closes the window and im staring at the pgp screen not knowing where to find the newly created key pair for the message encrypted... help really appreciated

It's probably on your clipboard.

Ctrl V

Most of the PGP things operate on the contents of your clipboard. It doesn't generate a key pair for your message - it encodes the message based on your vendors public key (you selected them as a recipient)... which they can then decode with their private key.

So to write a message to someone i first write it in cleartext, copy it into clipboard, encrypt and select recipient, then paste the encrypted message.
