 1 How to use the PINENTRY
 *************************
 
 You may run PINENTRY directly from the command line and pass the
 commands according to the Assuan protocol via stdin/stdout.
 
    Here is a list of options supported by all 3 flavors of pinentry
 
 `--version'
      Print the program version and licensing information.
 
 `--help'
      Print a usage message summarizing the most useful command line
      options.
 
 `--debug'
 `-d'
      Turn on some debugging.  Mostly useful for the maintainers.  Note
      that this may reveal sensitive information like the entered
      passphrase.
 
 `--no-global-grab'
 `-g'
      Grab the keyboard only when the window is focused.  Use this
      option if you are debugging software using the PINENTRY; 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 the
      PINENTRY).
 
 `--parent-wid N'
      Use window ID N as the parent window for positioning the window.
      Note, that this is not fully supported by all flavors of PINENTRY.
 
 `--display STRING'
 `--ttyname STRING'
 `--ttytype STRING'
 `--lc-ctype STRING'
 `--lc-messages STRING'
      These options are used to pass localization information to
      PINENTRY.  They are required because PINENTRY is usually called by
      some background process which does not have any information on the
      locale and terminal to use.  Assuan protocol options are an
      alternative way to pass these information.
