That means it tries to take care that the entered +information is not swapped to disk or temporarily stored anywhere. +This functionality is particularly useful for entering pass phrases +when using encryption software such as GnuPG or e-mail clients using +the same. It uses an open protocol and is therefore not tied to +particular software. +.PP +\fBpinentry-tqt\fR implements a PIN entry dialog +using the TQt tool kit, so it is especially suitable for users of TDE. +If the X Window System is not active then an alternative text-mode +dialog will be used. There are other flavors that implement PIN +entry dialogs using other tool kits. +.PP +\fBpinentry\-tqt\fR is typically used internally by \fBgpg-agent\fR. +Users don't normally have a reason to call it directly. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +\fB\-\-version\fR +Print the program version and licensing information. +.TP +\fB\-\-help\fR +Print a usage message summarizing the most useful command-line options. +.TP +\fB\-\-debug\fR, \fB\-d\fR +Turn on some debugging. Mostly useful for the maintainers. Note +that this may reveal sensitive information like the entered pass phrase. +.TP +\fB\-\-enhanced\fR, \fB\-e\fR +Ask for timeouts and insurance, too. Note that this is currently +not fully supported. +.TP +\fB\-\-no\-global\-grab\fR, \fB\-g\fR +Grab the keyboard only when the window is focused. Use this +option if you are debugging software using \fBpinentry\-tqt\fR; +otherwise you may not be able to to access your X session anymore (unless +you have other means to connect to the machine to kill +\fBpinentry\-tqt\fR). +.TP +\fB\-\-parent\-wid\fR \fIN\fR +Use window ID \fIN\fR as the parent window for positioning the window. +Note, that this is not fully supported by all flavors of \fBpinentry\fR. +.TP +\fB--display\fR \fISTRING\fR, \fB--ttyname\fR \fISTRING\fR, \fB--ttytype\fR \fISTRING\fR, \fB--lc-type\fR \fISTRING\fR, \fB--lc-messages\fR \fISTRING\fR +These options are used to pass localization information to +\fBpinentry-tqt\fR. They are required because +\fBpinentry-tqt\fR is usually called by +some background process which does not have any information on the +locale and terminal to use.
