When using gpg from the command line to decrypt a file, it does not prompt at
first for the pass phrase. Interrupting with control-c and then rerunning the
command causes it to prompt. But then entering the pass phrase causes it to
appear to hang. But pressing control-c again reveals the file has been
decrypted.

Work around is to use:

gpg --pinentry-mode loopback

I am using icewm.
