* Tweaked it slightly to avoid repetition of key searches when there
is only one search pattern to check (i.e. usually a single key ID or
fingerprint).
* Tweaked the code again so that it can also handle the cases where
someone has included a hexadecimal string in their user ID.
* Updated the HOWTO to match.
* Exported to .rst and .texi.
* Fixed the logic used to search for any given pattern.
* Added a sensible method of checking whether a pattern is a key ID or
fingerprint.

* lang/python/examples/howto/local-sign-group.py: added the bit where
specifying the signing key is actually used for signing rather than
just pruning the list of keys to certify.

* lang/python/examples/howto/local-sign-group.py: locally sign every
key in a group line except one's own keys. Intended to address the
sort of thing one might see on lists like PGPNET or other closed
groups amongst activists, journalists, etc. where everyone encrypts
to all recipients, but may not sign everyone's keys publicly..

* Woumd up the "what's new" section.
* Added an example for sending a key to the keyservers via hkp4py.
* Updated the export key code to use a more complete check for the
$GNUPGHOME location.
* Expanded on the installation and reinstallation troubleshooting
section.

* Added more comprehensive examples using hkp4py and added a couple
more example scripts for protonmail.

* Mostly tightening up the details on the hkp4py example script.
* Also fixed a typo in the LGPL boiler plate text included in all the
other example scripts for the HOWTO.
* added a new example script to search the keyservers and import the
results, this time using Marcel Fest's hkp4py module.
* Updated the key importing section to match this addition.
* Tested with the current version of hkp4py from github.

* Sanitized the shell command examples of extraneous whitespace.
* Removed keycount.c as sanitising it is pointless and it will be
generated by Cython when the example is followed.
* Regenerated the .texi version.
* Added new advanced section with an example of using the Python
bindings with CPython code compiled back to C code using Cython.
* Though it may seem a bit counter-intuitive to use the bindings just
to go back to C via a different route, this is not actually stupid.
* Added examples/howto/advanced/cython/ directory.
* Added keycount.pyx, setup.py and the keycount.c file which the first
two generated with Cython. Not including the .so and .o files from
the build.
* Exported the .texi version of the howto for the main docs.
* lang/python/examples/howto/export-secret-keys.py and groups.py:
Updated the backwards compatibility adjustments to account for
unicode differences between python 2 and 3.
* lang/python/examples/howto/groups.py: subprocess update
* lang/python/examples/howto/export-secret-keys.py: subprocess update
Both of these try the nice and easy method of getting the subprocess
output available in Python 3, but will fall back to the older Popen
method if it doesn't work. Essentially this is to be a little nicer
to Python 2.7.15 (even though the examples are filled with warnings
that py2 support is not guaranteed with the examples).
* lang/python/docs/GPGMEpythonHOWTOen.org: Updated links to the
ProtonMail keyserver import scripts and added a warning regarding
being unable to update third party keys.
* lang/python/examples/howto/pmkey-import-alt.py: added usage.
* lang/python/examples/howto/pmkey-import.py: added usage.
* import-key.py: fixed a minor typo.
* pmkey-import.py: locates and imports keys from the ProtonMail keyserver.
* pmkey-import-alt.py: the same as the previous except with setting an
alternative $GNUPGHOME directory.
* lang/python/examples/howto/symcrypt-file.py: *sigh*; passphrase was
right the first time, just the error check that wasn't.
* I really should stop second guessing myself one of these days ...

* Added a secret key export variant which saves output as both GPG
binary and ASCII armoured, plus saves in $GNUPGHOME and uses
multiple methods of determining what that location is.
* Example of default exporting keys.
* Example of exporting minimised keys.
* Example of exporting secret keys to a file with correct permissions.

* Uses the groups module to prepare a list of recipients and encrypt
to those.
* The main version (encrypt-to-group.py) tries to check for invalid
recipients, but still falls back to always trust for the second
encryption attempt.
* The gullible version doesn't try pruning the recipient list at all,
it just tries to encrypt and if it fails, switches straight to
always trust.
* The trustno1 version doesn't use the always trust model at all and
only attempts pruning the list of invalid recipients.
* Added a script which demonstrates how the groups module works.
* Script generates Mutt/Neomutt crypt-hooks for every group entry in
gpg.conf, including those entries for multiple keys (Mutt handles
that differently).
* Fixed the groups.py script so it really does what is described (the
old code had the same result for groups, group_lines and
group_lists).
* Updated the corresponding example in the doc to match.
* Updated the decryption example code in the HOWTO and the
corresponding decrypt-file.py script to gracefully handle a
decryption failure. This error will always be triggered when GPGME
is used to try to decrypt an old, MDC-less encrypted message or
file.
* Script to generate a new key with encryption subkey taking input
from interactive prompts.
* Will also take a passphrase via pinentry and uses passphrase caching
of five minutes when used in conjunction with the temp homedir
script.
* Script to create a temporary gnupg homedir in the user's directory
for testing or scripting purposes.
* Creates a hidden directory on POSIX systems with the correct
permissions (700).
* Creates a gpg.conf in that directory containing the same
configuration options as used in the "Danger Mouse" example in the
HOWTO with the correct permissions (600).
* Temporarily removing multi-key selection based examples.
* There are a few issues with getting the key selections to play
nicely with gpg.Context().keylist object types.
* Will troubleshoot them separately and restore them when that's
worked out, but I don't want these more complicated examples to
delay merging the HOWTO with master.
* Similar to group-key-selection.py, but does not use an existing
group from gpg.conf; instead takes multiple key IDs, fingerprints or
patterns on the command line and adds them to a keylist object.
* Begins to string together some of the simpler examples to do more
useful things.
* Signs and encrypts a file while encrypting to every key in a group
specified in the gpg.conf file.
