[Question] Is there any way for epa to loopback to parent emacs? #88

Closed dieggsy closed 6 years ago

This may be nonsense, but I was wondering whether there's a way to get the pinentry prompt in the parent emacs rather than the async process one with (setq epa-pinentry-mode 'loopback)

At the moment, I don't think there's any backchannel communication from the subordinate Emacs until after it's done executing.

This is old, and it seems like there isn't a way, so I'll close. Thanks.
