A Python binding for the gpgme library, used to drive the gpg command line program. More information about gpgme can be found here: http://www.gnupg.org/(en)/related_software/gpgme/index.html This binding stays fairly close to the C API with the following exceptions: * Memory management is not exposed to the user * Functions like gpgme_get_foo()/gpgme_set_foo() are converted to attribute access on gpgme.Context objects. * Functions that take gpgme_data_t arguments take arbitrary Python file-like objects. The read(), write(), seek() and tell() methods may be used on the object. * Non-zero gpgme_error_t return values are converted to gpgme.error exceptions. * Only the synchronous versions of functions have been wrapped. However, the Python global interpreter lock is dropped, so should play nicely in multi-threaded Python programs. * Function pairs like gpgme_op_import()/gpgme_op_import_result() are combined into single method calls. * The Python version of gpgme_op_keylist() returns an iterator over the matched keys, rather than requiring the user to use a special iteration function. This library is licensed under the LGPL, the same license as the gpgme library.
