Version 1.2.0 of GPGee has been released - head to the homepage at
http://gpgee.excelcia.org to download it.
New features include:
- Support for creating signatures with more than one key at once.
- Support for verifying multi-signed documents.
- Automated new version checking (this was actually added in 1.1.3 but
that version was unannounced)
- Can automatically change the status of source files to read-only after
they are signed. Useful for cases where a certain type of file's
reader (MS Excel with spreadsheets is one) changes the file when it is
opened even if it isn't edited. Since this would invalidate a
signature, you can now have GPGee set the file read-only.
In addition to that, there are a few bug fixes incorporated for good
measure.
For those that aren't familliar with GPGee, it is a Windows shell
extension that adds GnuPG support to explorer's right-click menu. You
can sign, sign+encrypt, encrypt, verify, and decrypt files right from
within the Windows explorer.
