Plain text Signature #155

Open Achim16 opened 5 months ago

Achim16 commented 5 months ago

Yet another enhancement proposal - signing files currently lacks the option to generate ASCII .asc signatures instead of binary one using the --armor argument.

This approach is possible for now, but maybe not so flexible. You can uncheck "Use Binary Mode for File Operations" on GnuPG Controller in order to generate an ASCII signature.

This change will make the application to restart. I plan to improve this function so that you can choose the signature style each time you want to sign.

Ok, I see, thanks. As this also affects encryption, I'd currently see this as a workaround only. But at least possible. Thanks
