@cindex features of easypg assistant

EasyPG Assistant is an Emacs frontend application to @acronym{GnuPG,
GNU Privacy Guard} that provides the following features:

@itemize @bullet
@item Key management.
@item Cryptographic operations on regions.
@item Cryptographic operations on files.
@item Dired integration.
@item Mail-mode integration.
@item Automatic encryption/decryption of *.gpg files.

@cindex introduction to gnupg

You can use EasyPG Assistant without any Emacs or GnuPG configuration
whatsoever, for example to encrypt and decrypt files automatically
with symmetric encryption, see @ref{Encrypting/decrypting gpg files}.
However, to use the full set of EasyPG Assistant's functions you
should have at least some minimum GnuPG configuration in place.

John Michael Ashley's GNU Privacy Handbook, available online as part
of @uref{https://gnupg.org/documentation/guides.html, the GnuPG user
guides}, provides an introduction to GnuPG use and configuration.  In
contrast to that, the GnuPG manual (@pxref{Top, , Top, gnupg, Using
the GNU Privacy Guard}) is more of a reference manual.

EasyPG Assistant commands are prefixed by @samp{epa-}.  For example,

@itemize @bullet
@item To browse your keyring, type @kbd{M-x epa-list-keys}

@item To create a cleartext signature of the region, type @kbd{M-x epa-sign-region}

@item To encrypt a file, type @kbd{M-x epa-encrypt-file}

@item To query a key server for keys, type @kbd{M-x epa-search-keys}
@end itemize

EasyPG Assistant provides several cryptographic features which can be
integrated into other Emacs functionalities.  For example, automatic
encryption/decryption of @file{*.gpg} files.

@node Key management
@section Key Management
@cindex key management

@cindex key ring, browsing
@cindex browse key ring
Probably the first step of using EasyPG Assistant is to browse your
keyring.  @kbd{M-x epa-list-keys} is corresponding to @samp{gpg
--list-keys} from the command line.

@deffn Command epa-list-keys name mode
Show all keys matched with @var{name} from the public keyring.
@end deffn

@noindent
The output looks as follows.

@example
  u A5B6B2D4B15813FE Daiki Ueno <ueno@@unixuser.org>
@end example

@noindent
A character on the leftmost column indicates the trust level of the
key.  If it is @samp{u}, the key is marked as ultimately trusted.  The
second column is the key ID, and the rest is the user ID.

You can move over entries by @key{TAB}.  If you type @key{RET} or
click button1 on an entry, you will see more detailed information
about the key you selected.

@example
 u Daiki Ueno <ueno@@unixuser.org>
 u A5B6B2D4B15813FE 1024bits DSA
        Created: 2001-10-09
        Expires: 2007-09-04
        Capabilities: sign certify
        Fingerprint: 8003 7CD0 0F1A 9400 03CA  50AA A5B6 B2D4 B158 13FE
 u 4447461B2A9BEA2D 2048bits ELGAMAL_E
        Created: 2001-10-09
        Expires: 2007-09-04
        Capabilities: encrypt
        Fingerprint: 9003 D76B 73B7 4A8A E588  10AF 4447 461B 2A9B EA2D
@end example

@cindex private key ring, browsing
@noindent
To browse your private keyring, use @kbd{M-x epa-list-secret-keys}.

@deffn Command epa-list-secret-keys name
Show all keys matched with @var{name} from the private keyring.
@end deffn

@noindent
In @file{*Keys*} buffer, several commands are available.  The common
use case is to export some keys to a file.  To do that, type @kbd{m}
to select keys, type @kbd{o}, and then supply the filename.

Below are other commands related to key management.  Some of them take
a file as input/output, and others take the current region.

@cindex insert keys
@deffn Command epa-insert-keys keys
Insert selected @var{keys} after the point.  It will let you select
keys before insertion.  By default, it will encode keys in the OpenPGP
armor format.
@end deffn

@cindex import keys
@deffn Command epa-import-keys file
Import keys from @var{file} to your keyring.
@end deffn

@deffn Command epa-import-keys-region start end
Import keys from the current region between @var{start} and @var{end}
to your keyring.
@end deffn

@deffn Command epa-import-armor-in-region start end
Import keys in the OpenPGP armor format in the current region between
@var{start} and @var{end}.  The difference from
@code{epa-import-keys-region} is that
@code{epa-import-armor-in-region} searches armors in the region and
applies @code{epa-import-keys-region} to each of them.
@end deffn

@cindex delete keys
@deffn Command epa-delete-keys allow-secret
Delete selected keys.  If @var{allow-secret} is non-@code{nil}, it
also delete the secret keys.
@end deffn

@node Cryptographic operations on regions
@section Cryptographic Operations on Regions
@cindex cryptographic operations on regions
@cindex region operations, cryptographic

@cindex decrypt region
@deffn Command epa-decrypt-region start end
Decrypt the current region between @var{start} and @var{end}.  It
replaces the region with the decrypted text.
@end deffn

@deffn Command epa-decrypt-armor-in-region start end
Decrypt OpenPGP armors in the current region between @var{start} and
@var{end}.  The difference from @code{epa-decrypt-region} is that
@code{epa-decrypt-armor-in-region} searches armors in the region
and applies @code{epa-decrypt-region} to each of them.  That is, this
command does not alter the original text around armors.
@end deffn

@cindex verify region
@deffn Command epa-verify-region start end
Verify the current region between @var{start} and @var{end}.  It sends
the verification result to the minibuffer or a popup window.  It
replaces the region with the signed text.
@end deffn

@deffn Command epa-verify-cleartext-in-region
Verify OpenPGP cleartext blocks in the current region between
@var{start} and @var{end}.  The difference from
@code{epa-verify-region} is that @code{epa-verify-cleartext-in-region}
searches OpenPGP cleartext blocks in the region and applies
@code{epa-verify-region} to each of them.  That is, this command does
not alter the original text around OpenPGP cleartext blocks.
@end deffn

@cindex sign region
@deffn Command epa-sign-region start end signers type
Sign the current region between @var{start} and @var{end}.  By
default, it creates a cleartext signature.  If a prefix argument is
given, it will let you select signing keys, and then a signature
type.
@end deffn

@cindex encrypt region
@deffn Command epa-encrypt-region start end recipients sign signers
Encrypt the current region between @var{start} and @var{end}.  It will
let you select recipients.  If a prefix argument is given, it will
also ask you whether or not to sign the text before encryption and if
you answered yes, it will let you select the signing keys.
@end deffn

@node Cryptographic operations on files
@section Cryptographic Operations on Files
@cindex cryptographic operations on files
@cindex file operations, cryptographic

@cindex decrypt file
@deffn Command epa-decrypt-file file &optional output
Decrypt @var{file}.  If you do not specify the name @var{output} to
use for the decrypted file, this function prompts for the value to use.
@end deffn

@cindex verify file
@deffn Command epa-verify-file file
Verify @var{file}.
@end deffn

@cindex sign file
@deffn Command epa-sign-file file signers type
Sign @var{file}.  If a prefix argument is given, it will let you
select signing keys, and then a signature type.
@end deffn

@cindex encrypt file
@deffn Command epa-encrypt-file file recipients
Encrypt @var{file}.  It will let you select recipients.
@end deffn

@node Dired integration
@section Dired Integration
@cindex dired integration
@cindex directory operations
@cindex multiple file operations

EasyPG Assistant extends Dired Mode for GNU Emacs to allow users to
easily do cryptographic operations on files.  For example,

@example
M-x dired
(mark some files)
: e (or M-x epa-dired-do-encrypt)
(select recipients by 'm' and click [OK])
@end example

@noindent
The following keys are assigned.

@table @kbd
@item : d
@kindex : d
@findex epa-dired-do-decrypt
Decrypt marked files.

@item : v
@kindex : v
@findex epa-dired-do-verify
Verify marked files.

@item : s
@kindex : s
@findex epa-dired-do-sign
Sign marked files.

@item : e
@kindex : e
@findex epa-dired-do-encrypt
Encrypt marked files.

@end table

@node Mail-mode integration
@section Mail-Mode Integration
@cindex mail-mode integration
@cindex sending signed/encrypted mails

EasyPG Assistant provides a minor mode @code{epa-mail-mode} to help
user compose inline OpenPGP messages.  Inline OpenPGP is a traditional
style of sending signed/encrypted emails by embedding raw OpenPGP
blobs inside a message body, not using modern MIME format.

NOTE: Inline OpenPGP is not recommended and you should consider to use
PGP/MIME@.  See
@uref{https://josefsson.org/inline-openpgp-considered-harmful.html,
Inline OpenPGP in E-mail is bad@comma{} Mm'kay?}.

@noindent
Once @code{epa-mail-mode} is enabled, the following keys are assigned.
You can do it by @kbd{C-u 1 M-x epa-mail-mode} or through the Customize
interface.  Try @kbd{M-x customize-variable epa-global-mail-mode}.

@table @kbd
@item C-c C-e C-d and C-c C-e d
@kindex C-c C-e C-d
@kindex C-c C-e d
@findex epa-mail-decrypt
Decrypt OpenPGP armors in the current buffer.

@item C-c C-e C-v and C-c C-e v
@kindex C-c C-e C-v
@kindex C-c C-e v
@findex epa-mail-verify
Verify OpenPGP cleartext signed messages in the current buffer.

@item C-c C-e C-s and C-c C-e s
@kindex C-c C-e C-s
@kindex C-c C-e s
@findex epa-mail-sign
Compose a signed message from the current buffer, using your default
key.  With a prefix argument, select the key to use interactively.

@item C-c C-e C-e and C-c C-e e
@kindex C-c C-e C-e
@kindex C-c C-e e
@findex epa-mail-encrypt
@vindex epa-mail-aliases
Compose an encrypted message from the current buffer.
By default it tries to build the recipient list from @samp{to},
@samp{cc}, and @samp{bcc} fields of the mail header.  To include your
key in the recipient list, use @samp{encrypt-to} option in
@file{~/.gnupg/gpg.conf}.  This function translates recipient
addresses using the @code{epa-mail-aliases} list.  You can also
use that option to ignore specific recipients for encryption purposes.

With prefix argument, asks you to select the recipients interactively,
whether to sign, and which key(s) to sign with.
@end table

@node Encrypting/decrypting gpg files
@section Encrypting and Decrypting gpg Files
@cindex encrypting gpg files
@cindex decrypting gpg files
@cindex gpg files, encrypting and decrypting
@cindex automatic file encryption and decryption

By default, every file whose name ends with @file{.gpg} will be
treated as encrypted.  That is, when you open such a file, the
decrypted text is inserted in the buffer rather than encrypted one.
Similarly, when you save the buffer to a @file{foo.gpg} file,
encrypted data is written.

When you save a buffer to an encrypted file for the first time, EasyPG
Assistant presents you a list of keys in a buffer @file{*Keys*} where
you can select recipients for encryption.  @xref{Key management}, for
a description of the format of that buffer.  You can streamline this
recipient selection step by customizing variables
@code{epa-file-encrypt-to} and @code{epa-file-select-keys} described
further below in this section.

@cindex symmetric encryption, passphrase entry for
If you do not select any recipient during this step, EasyPG Assistant
uses symmetric encryption.  As a consequence, you have to enter the
passphrase twice for every buffer save and every so often for file
reads, since the GnuPG Agent caches your passphrase for file reads at
least for some time, but not for buffer saves.  @xref{Caching
Passphrases}, for more information.

@cindex public key encryption, passphrase entry for
If you have created your own keypair@footnote{For encryption and
decryption of files you do not intend to share, you do not have to use
an email address as recipient during creation of the keypair.  You can
also use some free-form string that gives information on the use of
the keypair, like @code{backup} or @code{account database}.}, you can
select that as recipient, and EasyPG Assistant will use public key
encryption for that file.  Since GnuPG performs encryption with your
public key, it does not prompt for a passphrase for the buffer save,
but it will prompt for your passphrase for file reads every now and
then, depending on the GnuPG Agent cache configuration.

@cindex temporary files created by easypg assistant
To encrypt and decrypt files as described above EasyPG Assistant under
certain circumstances uses intermediate temporary files that contain the
plain-text contents of the files it processes.  EasyPG Assistant
creates them below the directory returned by function
@code{temporary-file-directory} (@pxref{Unique File Names, ,
Generating Unique File Names, elisp, GNU Emacs Lisp Reference
Manual}).  If you want to be sure not to leave any plain-text traces,
use an encrypted file systems at least for that directory.

The file name pattern for encrypted files can be controlled by
@code{epa-file-name-regexp}.

@defvar epa-file-name-regexp
Regexp which matches filenames treated as encrypted.
@end defvar

You can disable this behavior with @kbd{M-x epa-file-disable}, and
then get it back with @kbd{M-x epa-file-enable}.

@deffn Command epa-file-disable
Disable automatic encryption/decryption of *.gpg files.
@end deffn

@deffn Command epa-file-enable
Enable automatic encryption/decryption of *.gpg files.
@end deffn

@noindent
By default, @code{epa-file} will try to use symmetric encryption, aka
password-based encryption.  If you want to use public key encryption
instead, do @kbd{M-x epa-file-select-keys}, which pops up the key
selection dialog.

@deffn Command epa-file-select-keys
Select recipient keys to encrypt the currently visiting file with
public key encryption.
@end deffn

You can also change the default behavior with the variable
@code{epa-file-select-keys}.

@defvar epa-file-select-keys
Control whether or not to pop up the key selection dialog.
@end defvar

@vindex epa-file-encrypt-to
For frequently visited files, it might be a good idea to tell Emacs
which encryption method should be used through file variables
(@pxref{File Variables, , Local Variables in Files, emacs, The Emacs
Editor}).  Use the @code{epa-file-encrypt-to} local variable for this.

For example, if you want an Elisp file to be encrypted with a
public key associated with an email address @samp{ueno@@unixuser.org},
add the following line to the beginning of the file.

@cartouche
@lisp
;; -*- epa-file-encrypt-to: ("ueno@@unixuser.org") -*-
@end lisp
@end cartouche

Instead, if you want the file always (regardless of the value of the
@code{epa-file-select-keys} variable) encrypted with symmetric
encryption, change the line as follows.

@cartouche
@lisp
;; -*- epa-file-encrypt-to: nil -*-
@end lisp
@end cartouche

Other variables which control the automatic encryption/decryption
behavior are below.

@defvar epa-file-cache-passphrase-for-symmetric-encryption
If non-@code{nil}, cache passphrase for symmetric encryption.  The
default value is @code{nil}.

For security reasons, this option is turned off by default and not
recommended to be used.  Instead, consider using the GnuPG Agent, which
in many cases can do the same job, and does it in a safer way.
@xref{Caching Passphrases}, for more information.
@end defvar

@defvar epa-file-inhibit-auto-save
If non-@code{nil}, disable auto-saving when opening an encrypted file.
The default value is @code{t}.
@end defvar

@node Querying a key server
@section Querying a Key Server
@cindex query key server
@cindex key server, querying

The @code{epa-search-keys} command can be used to query a
@acronym{GPG} key server.  Emacs will then pop up a buffer that lists
the matches, and you can then fetch (and add) keys to your personal
key ring.

In the key search buffer, you can use the @kbd{f} command to mark keys
for fetching, and then @kbd{x} to fetch the keys (and incorporate them
into your key ring).

The @code{epa-keyserver} variable says which server to query.

@node GnuPG version compatibility
@chapter GnuPG Version Compatibility
@cindex gnupg version compatibility
@cindex version compatibility with gnupg
@cindex compatibility with gnupg

As of June 2023, there are three active branches of GnuPG: 2.4, 2.2,
and 1.4.  GnuPG versions 2.4.1 and later suffer from
@uref{https://dev.gnupg.org/T6481, GnuPG bug T6481} and are hardly
usable with Emacs.  There is a patch for that bug available at least
for GnuPG version 2.4.1, which your operating system or distribution
might provide already.  GnuPG 1.4 is considered a legacy version.

Besides that, all of those branches mentioned above should work
flawlessly with Emacs with basic use-cases.  They have, however, some
incompatible characteristics, which might be visible when used from
Emacs.

@itemize
@item
The key store format used by GnuPG 2.1 is incompatible with 1.4.  That
means, a key created with GnuPG 2.1 is not visible with 1.4.

@item
GnuPG 2.1 uses a fixed address for the Unix domain socket used to
communicate with @command{gpg-agent}.  The @code{GPG_AGENT_INFO}
environment variable, which is used by GnuPG 2.0 and 1.4, is ignored.
That means, if your system has both GnuPG 2.1 and 1.4, the gpg command
from GnuPG 1.4 is not able to use @command{gpg-agent} provided by 2.1
(at least out of box).

@item
GnuPG 2.1 (2.1.5 or later) has a mechanism to direct the Pinentry
password prompt to the Emacs minibuffer.  @xref{GnuPG Pinentry}.
@end itemize

@node GnuPG Pinentry
@chapter GnuPG Pinentry
@cindex gnupg pinentry
@cindex pinentry provided by gnupg

An important component of the GnuPG suite is the Pinentry, which
allows for secure entry of passphrases requested by GnuPG.  GnuPG
delivers various different programs as Pinentry, ranging from bland
TTY-only @command{pinentry-tty} to fancy graphical dialogs for various
desktop environments, like @command{pinentry-gnome3}.  Your operating
system usually determines which of these is used by default.

Note that the selection of a concrete Pinentry program determines only
@emph{how} GnuPG queries for passphrases and not @emph{how often}.
For the latter question see @ref{Caching Passphrases}.

@cindex pinentry, emacs as
With some configuration Emacs can also play the role of a Pinentry.
The most natural choice, available with GnuPG 2.1.5 and later, is to
use Emacs itself as Pinentry for requests that are triggered by Emacs.
For example, if you open a file whose name ends with @file{.gpg} using
automatic decryption, you most likely also want to enter the
passphrase for that request in Emacs.

@cindex loopback pinentry
This so called @dfn{loopback Pinentry} has the added benefit that it
works also when you use Emacs remotely or from a text-only terminal.
To enable it:

@enumerate
@item
@vindex allow-loopback-pinentry
Ensure that option @code{allow-loopback-pinentry} is configured for
@command{gpg-agent}, which should be the default.  @xref{Agent
Options, , Option Summary, gnupg, Using the GNU Privacy Guard}.

@item
@vindex epg-pinentry-mode
Customize variable @code{epg-pinentry-mode} to @code{loopback} in
Emacs.
@end enumerate

There are other options available to use Emacs as Pinentry, you might
come across a Pinentry called @command{pinentry-emacs} or
@command{gpg-agent} option @code{allow-emacs-pinentry}.  However,
these are considered insecure or semi-obsolete and might not be
supported by your operating system or distribution.  For example,
Debian GNU/Linux supports only the loopback Pinentry described above.

@ignore
In case somebody requests these:

Use Emacs for all GnuPG requests:

Make @command{pinentry-emacs} the default Pinentry by means of your
operating system.  Install package @file{pinentry.el} from GNU ELPA
and execute @kbd{M-x pinentry-start} to start the Emacs Pinentry
service.  @emph{All} GnuPG passphrase requests should then result in a
minibuffer prompt in the running Emacs.  If Emacs or the Emacs
Pinentry service are not running, passphrase requests fail.

Use Emacs for all GnuPG requests with other Pinentry as fallback:

Ensure the other Pinentry supports Emacs; @command{pinentry-curses}
does, for example.  Configure @command{gpg-agent} option
@code{allow-emacs-pinentry}.  Set environment variable
@code{INSIDE_EMACS} for the calling process.  Install package
@file{pinentry.el}.  Now if Emacs is running and @kbd{M-x
pinentry-start} has been executed, all GnuPG passphrase requests
should result in a minibuffer prompt in the running Emacs.  If Emacs
or the Emacs Pinentry service are not running, GnuPG uses the other
Pinentry instead.
@end ignore

@node Caching Passphrases
@chapter Caching Passphrases
@cindex caching passphrases
@cindex entering passphrases
@cindex passphrases, entering and caching

Typing passphrases is a troublesome task if you frequently open and
close the same file.  GnuPG and EasyPG Assistant provide mechanisms to
remember your passphrases for a limited time.  Using these, you only
need to re-enter the passphrase occasionally.  However, the
configuration is a bit confusing since it depends on your GnuPG
installation (@pxref{GnuPG version compatibility}), encryption method
(symmetric or public key), and whether or not you want to use
GnuPG Agent.  As an additional constraint, use of the GnuPG Agent is
mandatory for GnuPG 2.0 and later.  Here are some questions:

@enumerate
@item Do you use GnuPG version 2.0 or later instead of GnuPG version 1.4?
@item Do you use symmetric encryption rather than public key encryption?
@item Do you want to use GnuPG Agent?
@end enumerate

Here are configurations depending on your answers:

@multitable {111} {222} {333} {configuration configuration configuration}
@item @b{1} @tab @b{2} @tab @b{3} @tab Configuration
@item Yes   @tab Yes   @tab Must  @tab Set up GnuPG Agent.

@item No    @tab No    @tab No    @tab You can't, without GnuPG Agent.
@end multitable

To set up GnuPG Agent, follow the instruction in @ref{Invoking
