MacGPG2 is an open source and free Mac OS X port of GnuPG that aims to make GnuPG easy to install, provide a native Mac OS X pinentry utility and interact with existing GnuPG tools for Mac OS X.
Here are some key features of "MacGPG2":
· Last version to support PPC and MacOSX Tiger.
· Maximum key size increased to 8192 bits; recommended for expert users only.
· Core upgraded to GnuPG v2.0.16.
· Configured to use standard socket and daemonise gpg agent on the fly if required.
· Libassuan upgraded to v2.0.2-svn389.
· Libgpg-error updated to v1.9.
· Libgcrypt updated to v1.4.6.
· If the agent`s --use-standard-socket option is active, all tools try to start and daemonize the agent on the fly. In the past this was only supported on W32; on non-W32 systems the new configure option --use-standard-socket may now be used to use this feature by default.
· The gpg-agent commands KILLAGENT and RELOADAGENT are now available on all platforms.
