Description: # wsl2gpg
        
        wsl2gpg is a small utility making it possible to use gpg in WSL 
        (Windows Subsystem for Linux) with the agent
        from [Gpg4win](https://gpg4win.org/).
        
        GnuPG's libassuan emulates sockets on Windows by listening on localhost
        and writing the TCP port number and a key to the "socket" file. 
        This utility will listen on UNIX sockets in ~/.gnupg and proxy
        connections to the localhost TCP port. The key is automatically sent first. 
        
        With this, gpg in WSL can talk to the Gpg4win agent in Windows. 
        
        ## Usage
        
        You can either install wsl2gpg with pip:
        
        ```shell
        pip install wsl2gpg
        ```
        
        Or alternatively just copy [`__init__.py`](wsl2gpg/__init__.py) somewhere
        and make it executable with `chmod +x`
        
        Then, append a line to your `.bashrc` (or rc file of your favorite shell)
        to run wsl2gpg when you log in:
        
        ```shell
        wsl2gpg -q -i &
        ```
        
        You should then be able to use gpg in WSL as usual. For example, to show
        information on a Yubikey / smartcard:
        
        ```shell
        $ gpg --card-status
        Reader ...........: Yubico Yubikey 4 OTP U2F CCID 0
        [...]
        ```
        
        ## Potential Issues
        
        Should the Windows user detection not work, you can set the username manually:
        
        ```shell
        wsl2gpg -u yourwindowsuername
        ```
