pinentry-menu

pinentry-menu is a graphical pinentry replacement written in POSIX-compliant shell. It integrates with GnuPG by implementing the pinentry protocol and provides graphical password prompts using one of several supported runners (rofi, wofi, fuzzel).

Features

• Compatible with the pinentry protocol (used by GnuPG and friends)
• Supports rofi, wofi, and fuzzel as graphical backends
• Wayland and X11 compatible (runner-dependent)
• Respects PINENTRY_PROGRAM and PINENTRY_USER_DATA for integration
• Drop-in replacement for pinentry
• Configurable and extensible shell script
• Graceful fallback when requested runner is not available

Installation

make install PREFIX=/usr

To uninstall:

make uninstall PREFIX=/usr

Usage

export PINENTRY_USER_DATA=rofi  # or wofi, or fuzzel

Or configure it in your GPG agent config:

Dependencies

• A supported menu runner: rofi, wofi, or fuzzel
• A graphical environment (DISPLAY or WAYLAND_DISPLAY must be set)
