   Hi mark,

   Actually that was what happend in my shell too. But I didn't notice what was   
   happening. I could actually find the gpg job where I tested Ctrl-Z a couple of   
   days back. It was still in the background of my shell. ;-)   
      
   I've killed it now. Thanks for the learning experience! ;)   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
