Title: PGP help (SIMPLE Q)
Post by: substance on January 17, 2012, 08:20 pm
so ive been practicing PGP with myself trying to write myself a encrypted message.
i use kleopatra
heres what i do
open note pad
type "whatup thug"
save as "whatever"
go to kleopatra
click file, click encrypt message, select "whatever"
then i get a new file labled "whatever.txt.gpg"
open the file and its all in Unicode. just a buch of shapes n shit.
i tried to paste into here what it looks like but it wont let me post it for some reason.

i know im doing something wrong. :(

After you select the file, make sure the "text output" box is checked on the next screen.
