" gvim can't decryt files
" This is caused by the fact that a running gvim has no TTY and thus gpg is
" not able to ask for the passphrase by itself. This is a problem for Windows
" and Linux versions of gvim and could not be solved unless a "terminal
" emulation" is implemented for gvim. To circumvent this you have to use any
" combination of gpg-agent and a graphical pinentry program:
"
" - gpg-agent only:
" you need to provide the passphrase for the needed key to gpg-agent
" in a terminal before you open files with gvim which require this key.
"
" - pinentry only:
" you will get a popup window every time you open a file that needs to
" be decrypted.
"
" - gpgagent and pinentry:
" you will get a popup window the first time you open a file that
" needs to be decrypted.
