Translations:GnuPG/25/en

The gpg --list-keys command lists keys in your public keyring. You may use it to see the ID of your key so that you can create the revocation certificate. Now it is a good idea to copy all the .gnupg directory and the revocation certificate (in ASCII armor - ) to some secure medium (two floppy's or a CD-R you store in safe location). Remember that can be used to revoke your keys and make them unusable in the future.
