There are several HOWTOs available. Unfortunately some of them are not up-to-date.

We are working on a HOTWO for the Web Key Directory. For now please consult the Wiki.

Written "in house" by the GnuPG Project core team, the GPGME Python Bindings HOWTO provides detailed instructions and examples for using the Python bindings of the GPGME API with Python 3 code.

This HOWTO is available:

• in its original Emacs Org Mode source form in the GPGME repository ( en )
• as a single HTML file ( en )
• as a single HTML file with dark background and light text ( en )

GnuPG supports the use of smartcards. This HOWTO explains how to install and work with these cards.

• as on-line browsable HTML files ( en )
• as one big HTML file ( en )
• as plain text ( en )

This smartcard howto is also available in the source repository.

These howtos mostly describe the legacy version 1.4 of GnuPG
