+Emacs pinentry helper for GnuPG.
+
+This script talks to gpg-agent via the Assuan pinentry protocol and
+forwards passphrase requests to Emacs via emacsclient. It is intended
+for users who run Emacs in a terminal (emacs -nw) and want passphrase
+prompts to appear in the Emacs minibuffer instead of an external
+curses/GUI dialog.
