| 4 | Hi Rich, |
| 5 | |
| 6 | Are you saying that the ssh software checks for the presence of the |
| 7 | GPG_AGENT_INFO environment variable? It find it odd that ssh |
| 8 | hard-code the names of all possible agents. Also, I thought the ssh |
| 9 | folks were BSD-friendly and GPG was GPL-friendly. |
